Look - we have a sliding scale of "rights" here. What is causing the great divide in this country is an apparent slide past what many Americans are willing to agree with.

No. You're wrong. We are a republic, a confederation of states, bound together by the common recognition of certain universal truths and rights, together with sertain duties and obligations. What makes us great as a nation is our collective pledge that we stand for the right of all citizens of this nation to be free in their own homes from the will of others when it comes to what we have defined as our inalienable rights.
