   Because you have an inalienable right doesn't mean you cannot lose them.   
     The word 'inalienable' simply means something which cannot be   
   transferred to another.  If your willful acts deprive others of their   
   rights, YOU can lose yours.  Rights are not absolute, but conditional   
   according to the rules governing any particular society.
