Our rights have their foundation in the Constitution. However, the Constitution is only the legal construction of a few men. I like the Constitution, but I have realized that government preceded rights. That is, the writers of the constitution (and their affiliate government) existed before the Bill of Rights was created.
What do you mean by "Government preceded rights"? Rights are those things which are required by men in a society, so that they may be able to act morally (act in accordance with their life & happiness).

I'm not interested in your skepticism (inconsistent at that), so don't bring it up.
