ANALYTICAL RESPONSE
I think that “Man Right’s” and “Collective Right’s” differ many ways. “Man Right’s” states what man can and can not do. Man has the right to earn enough and to provide adequate food and clothing and recreation for himself as well as for his family, when it comes to basic survival. When it comes to the law people such as police officers may use force only in retaliation and only against those who initiate its use. The right of free speech means that a man has the right to express his ideas without danger of suppression as long as they are true statements. ( 1946, 1962, 1964, 1965, 1966 by Ayn Rand)

In collective rights it states that these rights are the definitions of proper social relationships. Observe the double standard: while, in the civilized countries of the West, the “liberals” are still advocating internationalism and global self- sacrifice—the savage tribes of Asia and Africa are granted the sovereign “right” to slaughter one another in racial warfare. Mankind is reverting to a pre-industrial, prehistorically view of society: to racial collectivism. I think that collective rights are a personal choice to a person and culture. To some men self- sacrifice might not be acceptable to the, but for religious and cultural reasons it is.( June 1963 by Ayn Rand)

“Man Right’s” and “Collective Right’s” are similar in one. They are similar because they are a set of rules/rights by which people use to govern themselves. These rules/rights are important so that they can have some type of control and system of consequences. Everyone might not agree upon these restrictions but they must be followed. They have the right to express their religious belief and not be judged.

In conclusion, I really didn’t understand what I was reading. I hope that there is another way for me to go back and fully understand it. However, both of these essays are about man, his rights, and the consequences to his wrongful actions.

Lets Be Real

Rough Days

Good Morning is the first thing I tell you
Good Night is the last
But today is the day that you want to show me your ass
I have been there for you from day one
We go through hours of talking and days of texting
Sometimes I wonder was I mistaken
You though I was gone but sorry baby you was sadly mistaken
As the hours past on I have to forgive
What we have is NOT DEAD it never will be
The real reason as to why I was mad
Is because you know how to make me mad
A little jealous is a way to make the world seem small
All I have is my basketball to cry upon
But before I leave please give TOOKIE a hug for me.
