They argued when debating the bill of rights as to whether add the amendments because the way the constitution is written it is clear we have all those rights!
But some basically said "but some wont understand unless we spell them out", others said "if we spell them out they will think that its the only right we have"
And they were right. People now think the Constitution and Bill of Rights GRANT us rights, and that other rights arent rights because they arent enumerated and pick apart the wording in each amendment in an attempt to neuter them as much as possible!
