Correction: John Peters Humphrey and René Cassin drafted the document, not Eleanor Roosevelt. My 13 year old writes more historically accurate material

Where is that basic human right to enter a foreign country without proper paperwork?

The U.N. Humans Right Council gave Nicolas Maduro a standing ovation(Venezuelan dictator), and we are supposed to be influenced by what the U.N. thinks is right in this country?

Last week, the U.N. refused to condemn Hamas as a terrorist organization when they continue to call for the destruction of Israel. It's time to defund these corrupt, bloated thugs.

If law mandated equal TREATMENT of women, problem would be solved. But it doesn’t, which is why we need the ERA. Human rights are not a thing. Constitutional rights are, and women don’t have them. Only one more state is needed to ratify the ERA-then women will finally be EQUAL!

Our postmodern friends, all on the left, think that any universal claims are inherently oppressive since they deny difference. 'Human rights' has now been replaced by 'diversity,' 'white privilege,' 'micro-aggressions,' etc. What matters is what makes us different, not the same.

It’s actually against US federal law to pay someone differently because of their sex. So if you feel you’re getting paid unfairly file a lawsuit and you’ll win stop posting bullshit

We need to exit the UN. We don't take orders from them. They are destroying Europe and are out of control.

Yes more UN federalism, one world, yes yes we get it.

Socialism is a cancer.

The pay gap myth in the US has been thoroughly debunked. Nice propaganda headline. Sad!

Riiiiiiight. Who’s on the Women’s Rights committee again?

Nigerian military tightens grip on rights group over human rights argumentThe Nigerian government accused human rights group Amnesty International of 'damaging the morale' of its soldiers fighting terrorism, as part of an ongoing argument with foreign nongovernmental organizations.
