Oh well! Maybe the USA or Florida would consider using the old international laws, like the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, that's already the law, even in America. They could form a new party or political movement that's pro universal rights.

Is there even a UN signatory to it that hasn't violated that declaration over and over again?
Just look at the first two articles:
"All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights."
(emphasis added)
Tell that to the Muslim world and their treatment of women.

Just look at the first two articles:
Article 1
All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights. They are endowed with reason and conscience and should act towards one another in a spirit of brotherhood.
Article 2
Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.
Furthermore, no distinction shall be made on the basis of the political, jurisdictional or international status of the country or territory to which a person belongs, whether it be independent, trust, non-self-governing or under any other limitation of sovereignty.

@beckyromero so, not you. You don't want to go back to human rights and international laws! Shocking. Like Western treatment of the poor and women.
Sounds like you need these cops to continue. Gahead!!!

Care to guess what my feelings are SCOTUS and overturning Roe?
I've often spoken about the American "Taliban."

@beckyromero then certainly you'd understand the need to return to international laws and the universal declaration. Unless you're already in one of the two parties. They're strictly war not international laws aggressors

There are ways to work within for change.
Like you, I have issues that I care about that I would like to see change more quickly. But I am more pragmatic about it. Sometimes things must change gradually in order for them to change at all.

@beckyromero let's agree that Americans in both parties need international relations to be the realm of brutality and deceit. Laws ain't for you! International laws offend the Dems and are poisonous to the GOP. Yes you have only you. Internal concerns, and your own needs to consider. You're the best most hegemonic. So we look on in horror. Obviously.
