No. This opens the door to laws that clearly apply based on on political affiliation. Do not open that door. It will eventually be used against you.

I hate to tell you this but the door is basically open and there's a loud mouth running for president and his cronies who's trying to finish the job.

Yeah, it's not a right unless everyone has it.

Well then "modern society" is wrong. I know I'm right.

I agree that rights should be universal, and it's something for which we should strive, but I disagree that it's not a right unless it is universal. There's plenty of awful examples throughout history of people who had certain rights while others did not.
