Natural rights are inherent to all men.
Moral codes are determined by individual men.
Your moral code is not the same as another's moral code. But your natural rights to your life, liberty and property are the same no matter what.
Additionally, we have been talking about whether something (i.e. public masturbation) should invoke criminal penalties or not. Morality applies to far more things than actions that invoke criminal penalties. Things like lying, cutting in line, cheating on your wife etc. Do you support criminal penalties for these actions? For some, they are patently immoral.
You are trying really hard to mix morality (and truthfully your own morality) with the concept of natural rights, and you still cannot see why that is failed tactic.
