Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, who will almost certainly be confirmed to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court, said that she does not have a position on whether people have natural rights.

"I do not hold a position on whether individuals possess natural rights," the jurist wrote in response to a written question from Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas.

Jackson pointed to the Declaration of Independence when she was asked to, "explain, in your own words, the theory prevalent among members of the Founding Fathers’ generation that humans possess natural rights that are inherent or inalienable."

Jackson wrote that, "The theory that humans possess inherent or inalienable rights is reflected in the Declaration of Independence, which states: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty, and the pursuit of Happiness.'"

Regarding Jackson's lack of a position about the issue of whether individuals have natural rights, GOP Rep. Mike Johnson of Louisiana tweeted, "Ketanji Brown Jackson denies the first, self-evident truth of America!"

Problem is, if we don't have natural rights, we basically don't have a Constitution.

All that matters to these people is the power of the state over the individual.

If she doesn't believe you have natural rights, she will not hesitate a second before taking them away.

Creepy Joe found the most fucked-up judge he could.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Perhaps she does not believe in God.

 

[Desperado]

The Barbarians are at the Gates

 

[Stashman]

No one should ever be seated on the SCOTUS that does not believe in natural rights. It's the same reason that we must NEVER elect an atheist President, though we might have done so with Obama.

Lock and load.

The Democrats are totalitarianists.
They do not accept that the US Constitution was design to protect the citizens from the government.

"Natural rights" are a quaint philosophical construct not expressly guaranteed by law. Never has been. These supposedly inalienable rights are always bounded by laws that seek to preserve the social order. These days the term is bandied about by people who seem to have a dim view of collective rights.

The rights we have are in the Constitution and that is what she follows. The rest of this particular hubbub is pointless and stupid. She will be confirmed as she was in June of last year by the Senate, with a bipartisan vote.

Where do you think natural rights come from? Did you think any of the Muslims the U.S. slaughtered across the Middle East this century had any natural rights?

Last time I checked their not American citizens. You sorta have to be one before you get Constitutional rights.

She is Evil and if she gets on The Bench America will descend into Hell!

 

[DGS49]

The cornerstone of the Bill of Rights is that most human rights PRECEDE government. Other countries and other constitutions purport to grant rights to the citizens. Our view is the opposite. WE ALREADY HAVE THE RIGHTS, and the Government's job is to ENFORCE those rights when necessary.

Note the 9th Amendment, which recognizes that there are rights that have not been mentioned in the first eight Amendments, but that does not mean that those rights do not exist, merely that they were not mentioned. These include, for example, the right to own property, the right to travel within the country, the right to enter into enforceable contracts, and so on.

We don't have the right to criticize the government because of the First Amendment. All the First Amendment does is assert that the Government lacks the power to take that right away.

It is dangerous to have Supreme Court justices who do not understand or are unwilling to affirm this principle. Justices with her viewpoint would see no reason why Government could not prohibit citizens from owning, for example, handguns.

I really don't care if we killed them after they blow up a building/airplane full of woman and children do you? The number of deaths from radical muslim/islam for the last century can not be counted it's so high. I bet their happy as hell to know they have someone like you in the states to defend them.
