The Bill of Rights did not create rights. It acknowledged them.

The document that codifies the US Citizen's rights as mentioned above is the Declaration of Independence, which includes the following wonderful lines:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness."

I'm with Mick on this one.

Oh, and I might add,

You want my guns?

Come and get them.
