Your rights are not dependant on the Constitution but predate it in Common Law.  The Constitution is specifically about creating a general government for the States.  \n\nThe Bill of rights is not a list of personal rights (refer to Article IX of the Amendments).  The first eight articles are statements excluding the federal (general) government from doing specific things.  The last two are declaratory statements of basic truths in part underscoring the fact that individual rights are to numerous too list.\n\nRead Thomas Jefferson’s Kentucky Resolution, preferably his first draft. \n\nBy the way the Constitution of the United States is not long, it is only seven Articles of which the longest only has 10 Sections.  It is written in clear, easy to understand English.

The right to freedom to practice your religion.  You can practice any religion you like, as long as you are not a Muslim.  (Recent news article showed that a person suspected of terrorism was set a parole so that he could not travel more than 1 mile from home - therefore could not go to mosque).\n\nA right to speedy trial by jury and to face your accusers. (How many terror suspects do the American currently have in a certain prison, who have not - so far - been allowed the usual legal right that everybody else takes for granted?)\n\nWho recons you haven't given up any rights or freedoms?  How long before another, equally vallid reason is found to segregate another part of our society?  How long before we can no longer enjoy the freedoms and rights that we are supposed to fight for?

When I give my regular talks on the Constitution the first question I ask is: "What 5 rights are protected by the 1st Amendment" I also ask "How many amendments are in the Constitution".  If you just read your copy you can come up with many more.  \n\nIn Liberty,\nEric H. Smith\nwww.erichsmith.com

I am not sure about speech but I do know that when you are convicted of a crime you basically give up all rights that the constitution gives you. You do not have the right to denie them searching your house. You do not have the right to go anyplace you want. You do not have the right to vote. I don't see how they can take your right to free speech away but if they can they will. Once your debt to society is paid all rights are restored with the exception of the right to bare arms. However they can not take away what is known as your basic human rights.
