> Some rights are inalienable
He addresses that. A right has to be granted by someone. Who grants these inalienable rights? If you answer is "God", or "they just are", your thinking is circular.
If your answer is "the government/state", you are wrong. The government/state grants you this "right", and takes it away as it pleases, so it is actually not inalienable.
TLDR; An inalienable right that is systematically violated is not very inalienable, is it?
