Rights are natural. You have one general universal right:
The right to do as you wish as long as you uphold the non-aggression principle and by extension respect private property rights.
Governments only restrict/deny rights. They don't grant them.
Semantics. Tell the government you wish to snort cocaine, own a fully auto machine gun without a permit, to discriminate against gay people because one of your religious books tells you that God wishes this, and to drive whatever speed you want wherever you want. Let us know how that works out for you.

What are you talking about?
Of course the State goes around and cages/kills people for victimless activities as well as non-consensual edicts they enforce.
It's the basis of its power.
I'm talking about the principles behind rights. The State is the opposite of anything remotely principled.
