What is the point of touting "human rights" when the concept itself is poorly defined?
Today in a miserably wretched day for me, I have come to the firm conclusion that the concept of "human rights" is in URGENT need of a honest redefinition. And the change should start in Western countries who are best positioned to "make the point." Delaying it is only causing untold sorrow and deep misery to millions of oppressed peoples.
Let me go straight to the point; the "mind" of a human being must be recognized and protected. We live in a world where even the basic freedom of speech is not guaranteed in China, for example. So it might be too early to push this concept I really want to be made into law. But I think certain countries are in a prime position to do so and they should.
Every human being has the right to his own freedom of reason and conscience. That means NO OTHER SON OF A BITCH GOAT should have any power whatsoever to control said individual in any way "mentally."
Just as there is a 911 emergency number for physical emergencies where government steps in, there should, and it is high time to have a 911 emergency number when a offending human being intrudes into the mind of another human. Why? Because humans are fallible and will continue to cause mental misery to others unless there is a governing force acting upon them. This is not a call to more government but the situation of not having so have made life miserable for millions.
Just as there is a age prerequisite for many activities (drinking, smoking, joing the army etc) there should be a age after which the individual's mind is automatically protected by a formidable law that punsishes any offender to kingdom come.
Don't mistake this for any anti-bullying laws. Nor should this be intrepreted it as a remedy for cases such as "he made me feel bad." This is perhaps more defined.
A realistic example: adult children being controlled/terrorized by their parents in important issues such as beliefs. This is where the mind of the powerless individual is raped over and over and sources of solid help is scattered and hard to find.
This happens far too often than anyone allows themselves to think. Even in western countries.
We have governments for a reason. It strikes me as a plain injustice and that in 2010, these miserable practices of mind rape countinues. This madness must be stopped.
dang, I really have to go as it is late. I will check back tommorrow.
edit:
I know this opinion sounds rather prematurely formed and some of you may laugh at it but writing all this down feels like I got rid of a huge weight off my chest. No human being should feel this way, it is wrong. It is a universal absolute evil. Yes, EVIL. WICKEDNESS. Yes.
gd nite.
