Perhaps you wanted pizza for dinner, but was out voted by the rest of the family who wanted chili. this is similar to what happens in a community. one person has to give up a right for the good of the group. sometimes citizens' duties and rights conflict with each other. a good example is a public protest. people have the right to meet in groups and share ideas. however, a protest can disrupt traffic or other normal activities. a city must provide extra police protection to keep people safe. therefore, the city has the right to require permission in advance for a protest. government must make laws to balance the rights of individuals and different groups of people.

both require government laws to maintain order and safety.

both show conflict between the rights of individuals and groups.

both explain why the rights of groups always win over individual wants.

both demonstrate the downside of depending on voting to make decisions.
