objection to what Middle Eastern countries do within their own borders. The same with North Korea or any other totalitarian regime. Rights only deriving from government means they are not universal, so we should not criticize these governments.

If the US government places further controls on guns, we should not complain. Our rights derive from this government, so therefore we have no rights to guns outside what government says.

This extends to mask mandates, closing of businesses. Government giveth, government can taketh away. Rights aren't universal and immutable, right?
