...Government cannot grant me any freedom. Freedom is a negative--a lack of restraint. Nobody can grant you a lack of something.
I can grant you a lack of money, if I steal it from you.
Government can grant you a lack of freedom, if they take it from you.
When we're in the boat we are currently in, it doesn't matter where freedom comes from. If freedom is granted (by not being taken away) by governments or if freedom flows naturally from human beings simply existing. Right now it doesn't matter where they come from, because all of our rights are being suppressed by our government.
Let's get back our rights, start exercising them fully. Then we can have the chat about where rights come from. Do you think farmers care where rain comes from if all of their crops are drying up and dying off?
