It is important to note that our rights are not "given" to us by the US Government or any other such entity. Our natural rights, many of which are outlined in the Bill of Rights and elsewhere in the US Constitution, come from our humanity, our Creator, and/or by virtue of our existence as free people. The purpose of the rights listed in the US Constitution is not to "give" them to us, but rather to ensure that the Government does not infringe upon them. It isn't a declaration of our rights, but an acknowledge of them.
