human rights or human responsabilties

if more humans took control of their responsabilties in stead of demanding 'rights' we would get on a lot better.

i read this somewhere, ' soon it will be deemed offensive to take the piss out of yourself'.

Right are what people are born into. Duties are what they acquire. There is no 'human duties' as such, although there are a few duties that you'd expect a morally decent person to perform such as helping someone out of a lake. These are by no means universal however.
