Yeah, that arrogance bit....

I actually met someone the other day, who claimed that other people had no rights.

And I mean, this person's even a US citizen, right?

It's unbelievable to me, that there are still people like that walking around in this world, but.... there are.

And I mean - hm... how can I say this - you know, all those highfalutin philosophical concepts like morality and so on, and political concepts like rights and so on - all those things, boil down to very simple aspects of human nature.

You know, it's like, you come into my house, and I ask you, "please don't drag dirt onto the carpet", and then you say, "you have no right to make that request", and just to prove it, you deliberately drag dirt into my house..... right? What are you gonna do with someone like that?

Well, I mean, the only thing you really CAN do, is keep him out of your house, right?

And so, I mean, if he's gonna go to other peoples' houses with that crap, you'd kinda hope that those other people, wouldn't let him get away with that either, yes?
