Recommendations and Conclusion on the issue of Human Rights Violations:
1. Permit me to submit the following three recommendations on the issue of Human Rights Violations:
a) Abortion is Human Rights Violation: It is through the legalization of unnatural or artificial abortion that we have unwittingly legalized violence against human beings. Our definition of human rights clearly stated that human rights are inherent in all human beings irrespective of their "age", etc. I recommend that all forms of legalized abortion be stopped henceforth. We have been encouraging violence against the unborn defenceless child not realizing that we are numbing our consciences and exterminating ourselves in the process. Abortion is typically a human rights violation against self.
b) Discrimination of Persons based on any sentiment is Human Rights Violation: Discrimination denies people their humanness, making it impossible for such a person to exercise their rights. Therefore, it should be stopped. Discrimination is an outward sign of inward hatred and enmity. Let us destroy discrimination of all kinds and shapes. Instead of destroying the perceived enemy, in its place, let us conquer the enmity in each one of us.
c) Payment of Unfair Wages: Both state and non-state actors must be very careful over laborers' wages. Unpaid and underpaid wages for laborers is a capital human rights violation, that is always crying for vengeance. It does not augur well for the society and denies the laborers fairness and justice, and the means to livelihood. It must be stopped immediately because only the living can enjoy human rights.
2. Conclusion: Those who violate the rights of others should temporarily assume the positions and conditions of those whose rights are being violated so that they can imagine how they would feel if they were to suffer such violations.
Explanation:
1. Human rights are rights which a human being is guaranteed to enjoy in furtherance of their life. According to wikipedia.com, "human rights are natural, legal, inalienable, and fundamental rights "to which a person is inherently entitled simply because she or he is a human being" and which are "inherent in all human beings", regardless of their age, ethnic origin, location, language, religion, ethnicity, or any other status."
2. Human rights are universally applicable in place and time. Human rights are equal or egalitarian for everyone. They require empathy, the rule of law, and the imposition of an obligation on persons to respect the human rights of others. Human rights should not be taken away except as a result of due process based on specific circumstances; for example, human rights may include freedom from unlawful imprisonment, torture, and execution. They can only be taken away from one who had first abused the human rights of others.
3. Human rights violations are any forms of tyranny, injustice, and any other acts by state or non-state actors to deny one the exercise of their human rights as enshrined in the UN Declaration of Human Rights.
