Yeah but he could get angry and pop you in the face then what are you gonna do huh huh huh huh?

You're being facetious, but that is essentially what I'm saying. How do rights matter unless they are enforceable?

Lets start with do they exist or don't they. Admit that you believe in the existence of property rights before we move on to how and if they can be enforced.

It depends on how you define right. I will say that rights, as they are defined by many people in this forum either explicitly or implicitly, don't exist.
