You also don't have a right to not be arrested in America. Why would you think that? They can arrest you for any reason at any time if you are on their land.

  > You also don't have a right to not be arrested in America. That's a given, mate. The commentor made the ridiculous claim that he had a right not to be arrested in China for breaking Chinese laws. No individual has that right. The passage I responded to was > How sure can I be if my company is not breaking any Chinese laws? Would it by fine if I get arrested for breaking those when I'm on a trip to Asia? The answer is that you cannot be sure. The chinese government has every ability to arrest you for crimes committed elsewhere. They have every ability to change their laws at any time to enable their arrest. No one will even blink if they abandoned their legal system entirely to arrest just you for nothing at all in particular. There is no 'rule' saying they can only arrest you for things done on their soil; or that arrests of a non-citizen must be just; or really anything. This is true of America as well. Why wouldn't it be? We're speaking on the level of sovereign nations. > If you're outside America, you don't have a right not to be blown to pieces by a killer robot (aka "drone"). Why would you think that? They can blow you to pieces for any reason at any time no matter where you are. This is another topic entirely and completely non-germaine to the thread.
