But if those rights are in fact 'inalienable' then surely that means you have no right to restrict them, if in fact you can.

I think we might need to define the term 'inalienable' because that seems to be the issue although we have had this discussion here several times in the past.

Inalienable is interchangeable with natural as far as rights are concerned. If right is natural, then how can you possibly say that everyone is not entitled to them?
