Anonymous

It’s been written in every document that outlines the rights of humans? Such as:

  • US Declaration of Independence

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

  • US Constitution

5th Amendement
 

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due processof law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.
  • Though I’m not a fan, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

Article 3

Everyone has the right to life, liberty and security of person.

  • European Convention on Human Rights

Article 2, Section 1

  • International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights

 Every human being has the inherent right to life. This right shall be protected by law. No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his life.

  • Convention on the Right of the Child

 States Parties recognize that every child has the inherent right to life.

  • Basic Law for the Federal Republic of Germany

Every person shall have the right to life and physical integrity. Freedom of the person shall be inviolable. These rights may be interfered with only pursuant to a law.
