With the advent of computer software the legal concept of 'intellectual' property rights has been reinvigorated.
Dear reader, let me ask you this, what is the value of the 'intellectual' property rights of your constitutional rights?
Does it perhaps even extend beyond the concept of property, to being an 'inalienable' right, a body-mind thing?
If this is the case, then, would in not be the case that a violation of civil rights is the constitutional equivalent of rape?
Now, I'm not saying that anyone should be able to merely accuse someone of violation of civil rights and ask that the perpetrator be treated as a sexual predator - the standard of evidence must be high. Personally I think the bar should be set somewhere in the area of slander and liable, but I'm not a legal professional.
