Define liberty. Actually — let the person who wrote that define liberty. Bet the view was different back then.The Declaration says that God gives all people the unalienable rights to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness.

Women have a right not to have sex.
I'll bet it was too I'm sure the founders didn't envision machine guns or airplanes and women had no rights. They had the right to get married and do what their husbands told them to do. All men are created equal unless you're a woman or a minority, then no dice, does not apply.Define liberty. Actually — let the person who wrote that define liberty.

The amount of abortions, about 900 000 in US last year, hints that some don't take advantage of that right.Who has said that we don't?

If we are going to use the standards of the time, then no they don't. Marital rape didn't become a prosecutable crime in America until the mid-20th century. Legally a woman had no right to not have sex when liberty was defined.
The Declaration says that God gives all people the unalienable rights to life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. The Constitution says that people have the right to privacy in their papers and person and the right to make personal decisions about their lives. In fact securing the blessings of liberty is emphasized in the Preamble.
Anti-abortion advocates say their God (which is apparently not the same God as the God of the Founders) gave the fetus a right to life and for reasons known only to their God that cancels women's rights. It's time to tell them they are wrong. You can't deny unalienable rights, even if you pack the Supreme Court.
Don't thing for one second that that's not what the originalists want.
Well, there is at least one Con here that believe when married the woman does not have the right to say no. Go down below on the site if you want to know who that is.Who has said that we don't?
