"theres a lot to think about"

First, a clip from The West Wing,

What we dont realize is that at times, peoples rights are taken away based on political reasons, things like gun laws, international travel, and now even what we can eat or drink are becoming more and more controlled by the government, and the government expects us to follow without question or reason. Those who don't simply follow are bullied into submission until one person stands up and explains their rights that are so clearly written by our forefathers. Now, I am not saying I am a fan of revolt, I am not the type that stands up and pickets in front of the white house or to be honest, identify myself with any kind of political actions whatsoever.
What I am is a person who doesn't complain that a "gun" killed a friend, but that a "Person" who carried a gun, legal or not, killed a friend. I don't point at every Islamic person and shout "terrorist" nor do I condone it, and I don't sit around on my rear every day all day eating fast food without exercising, and complain that Mc Donald's or Burger King made me fat. I am a person who was taught something called common sense, and that our rights expect us to use that common sense in its definition.
Mc Donald's has a right to cook and serve its food to its customers, and, should someone become obese because they ate there on a daily basis, they have a right to complain about it. Its all spelled out on the Bill of Rights that this government was based on. Nowhere in the bill did it say that one person has the right to react against another for their own choices. So why is it that someone who made wrong choices is allowed to punish a corporation or even, another person for their own actions?
Oh and those of you who are concerned about the above illusion, please watch this video, its the same trick with a little twist at the end, and sums up the above perfectly!
