Your right to free speech is in the constitution (to use your example). have you heard of the Bill of Rights? you've just made the weirdest, most abstract and bizarre explanation of something extremely obvious. when you get arrested you have rights... i.e. Miranda Rights, laid out in the Miranda Act... these are things guaranteed to you by law. and how does it go??? .. "You have the right to remain silent"... "you have the right to an attorney".... etc etc.

The list is endless. there is no point in explaining it to someone who is going to argue that the moon is made of cotton candy.

You cant just declare something a "right". get it? you can't just say "i have this right" or "its a basic human right" and that makes it fact.
