ahh.. but there are also many selfish desires that you do not have a moral or legal right to act upon. suicide sometimes entails marital and financial implications that have always been within the jurisdiction of the state.
are we talking about a right as granted by law or rights according to what is morally acceptable?
and lastly, people do things that they don't have the right to do all the time (regardless of moral or legal boundaries). saying that people do shitty things to eachother is really outside the argument of whether or not you have the right to do it in the first place.
