Self-evident only to you. As I said above, you do love to indulge in, "...
"facts" that don't require proof. Unfortunbatrely it is not a fact. It is a
mere supposition on your part.

That is right, they acquire from society. And this society enshrines private
property rights as a principle at its founding and in its Constitution. As
do most organized sociities. But only a mental marturbator like you calls
that "violating others liberty." For the simple reason that without an
organized society might makes right becomes the rule and morons like you
would lose everytime because you have neither the brawn nor the brains to
survive.

Sorry, moron, this country was founded on the principle that we are all
endowed by our creator with certain inlienable rights which are guaranteed
to us in the Constitution.

The US, Canada, Australia, all of Europe, all but the most primitive areas
of Asia and Africa. Even old Communist Russia did except your private
property rights could be revoked on a whim by the Government, but while you
had them, they were absolute, . no one else could use your property.
> Thought not.
And you were wrong for the simple reason you are incapable of rational
thought. That is what happens when a moron indulges in mental masturbation.
