The bill of rights did not grant rights. Read it again.
Discussion
I didn't say anywhere that it did.
Yes you did. You suggested the bill of rights is a legal agreement that somehow agrees on what rights humans should have.
Do the rights exist if this agreement does not exist?
I didn't but whatever.
Obviously they no longer exist legally.
but whether they exist legally or not,
its up to the people to *exercise them.
if they aren't doing that it doesn't much matter what is written down.
you have no rights except those you assert and defend.
