How do Jefferson's unalienable rights compare with the natural rights expressed by Locke?
Unalienable rights are protected by the constitution and the judicial system of the U.S., whereas John Locke's idea of a person's natural rights has no force in law and, in fact and in practice, those rights tend to be exercised (or suspended) purely at the whim of whatever self-selecting ruling class happens to hold sway at the time. The unalienable rights described in the constitution, whilst they may be open to interpretation, are guaranteed to all citizens of the United States. In contrast, Lockean natural rights have nowhere been granted similar legal status and are often allowed or denied as a way of controlling the masses; viz: the suspension of the right of travel and of assembly during the British miner's strike, the use of military force in suppressing the student protest in Tiannanmen Square and the subjugation and murder of tens of thousands of Iraqis both under Saddam Hussein and under the so-called Allies after the Gulf war.
