      Ok, prosecute all eight billion of us for the murder of the seventy million that died last year, see how that works out for you.

          Positive Vs. Negative rights, we’ve been talking about it this entire time. Saying “You can’t murder him” is different from “You can’t let him die”

              Then why does the UN let 60 million people die each year?

                  Yes

                  (but only rhetorically, I’m actually asking why you belive that some hypothetical future institution will be able to)

                    I don’t?

                    You seem to think that ‘right to life’ means ‘right to defy entropy.’ It doesn’t.

                    I guess freedom speech isn’t a right because people in comas don’t have that ability?
