If you don't have rights that other people don't have, is that the same as saying you DO you have rights that other people DO have?
Yes and no. I do have the right to do the things that don't harm other people.
If other people think they DO have the right to steal from me extort me, aggress against me, defraud me, rape torture or murder me. in short, force me to do something without my consent. Then I do not believe I have the right to go and do the same thing (I can not force someone else to do something without his consent)
I have the right to defend myself against an aggressor just like everyone else would have the right to defend themselves against me if I would aggress against them. Most people know this and live their lives that way except they make an exception for the mafia called the state.
I don't know how to protect yourself against the statemafia/mafia, because most people are still believers. If I would defend myself against other mafia noone would think I'm a criminal.
People could hire (and fire) a referee or ombudsman directly, if the person was corrupt you could stop paying, which you can't do with the state.
A group of people could indeed overpower you in fact statism is exactly that. A group of people that are seen as having the right to overpower you, if you don't obey their opinion or pay them.
What mechanism should protect me my family and friends (individuals and or families) the mechanism of self defense first and foremost, neighbor hood watches, protection agencies. I'm not gonna decide how you and the people you love are gonna have to protect themselves and who they must pay or be locked up. I would be an aggressor.
There are people who thought about solution and people who have other solutions that they put in practice. But that does not mean you or I must must do that. We need to think for ourselves first not expecting others to solve our problems
some ideas

self ownership and the NAP (non aggression principle) need to more understood for a move in the right direction.
But you can not make it into a law and force people that would be the opposite of self ownership and the NAP. lol
Thanks for the reply ....peace.
