Otherwise if our laws of rights are inapplicable then would one say that our laws to prosecute are inapplicable? It's not a one way street. |
I don't think one should be deprived of his right to defend himself just because he isn't a citizen, and should be treated like any other if he abused that right or initiated violence.
The crime is the same, the punishment should be the same, so should be the protection that one appeals to from such punishment (rights.)
IMO the people of the world have the same inalienable rights as we do, no matter if their governments recognize them; and if we're the world police we claim to be, to fight civil rights abuses, we must first establish that said people had those rights in order for them to have been violated.
