Is it an American thing to not care if someone is a “______” when talking about their protected rights?

[captain_oats]

The rights enshrined in our constitution are viewed as natural rights so they cannot be qualified, all people are entitled to their protection.

[GuiA]

Oh absolutely. For the more egregious example of it, “______” is “felon”.

Not many countries fare better, to be fair.

[sexydefinesher]
