Civil rights are for everyone, from saint to scum .... you can't have it any other way. We all know ... or should ... what repressive totalitarian govts. do when they take power, they suspend civil rights. And for good reason; individual rights guaranteed by a constitution written or implied are the basis of any democracy .... you can't have one without the other. Without those rights we couldn't even discuss this.
