Ever read the sneaky Article 29 UN UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS?

UN UNIVERSAL DECLARATION OF HUMAN RIGHTS

Article 29.

(1) Everyone has duties to the community in which alone the free and full development of his personality is possible.

(2) In the exercise of his rights and freedoms, everyone shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law solely for the purpose of securing due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of meeting the just requirements of morality, public order and the general welfare in a democratic society.

(3) These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations.

Can you see the problem? "These rights and freedoms may in no case be exercised contrary to the purposes and principles of the United Nations." Since when does the UN get to decide what every country (and independent soul) has to do?
