Subject: Re: Another Win For President Trump
How would you define your terms? Individual vs collective rights, specifically. I can envision a few variations, such as a "collective" would be a lobby group or other organization (made up of individuals, whom are exercising their rights to associate and collaborate to form that organization).
Or perhaps you're referring to the collective right of -for example- an army to kill people, but as individuals we do not have that right (except self defense)?
I do agree with your first paragraph, as well as the prefatory/operative clause portion of your post.
