Do you agree that only individuals have rights, since, if you must be a member of a group to have rights, you have no inherent, inalienable rights?

We condemn state-funded and state-mandated abortions. It is particularly harsh to force someone who believes that abortion is murder to pay for another's abortion. The Principle: We hold that individual rights should not be denied or abridged on the basis of sex. It is the right and obligation of the pregnant woman, not the state, to decide the desirability or appropriateness of prenatal testing, Caesarean births, fetal surgery, voluntary surrogacy arrangements and/or home births. Solutions: We oppose all laws likely to impose restrictions on free choice and private property or to widen tyranny through reverse discrimination. Transitional Action: We call for repeal of all laws discriminating against women, such as protective labor laws and marriage or divorce laws which deny the full rights of men and women. http://www.lp.org/issues/platform_all.shtml#womerigh -TLP --- In [email protected], "David Macko" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > http://www.lp.org/issues/platform_all.shtml#womerigh > > Go to Issues.
