In peacetime, the Constitution guarantees the freedoms listed in the Bill of Rights, which is the first ten Amendments to the Constitution. However, since we are now at war, the Constitution doesn't apply.
Even during peacetime, though, the Constitution is a really old document, so most of the Bill of Rights is just a bunch of meaningless words, anyway.
That's why America has a president: I'm the decider about what rights people have and what rights they don't have.
People are always free to agree with me.

Freedom of the press ("Congress shall make no law abridging freedom of speech") until McCain Feingold bill passed.
Freedom to bear arms ("The right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed") until the Gun Control Act of 1934 was passed.
Freedom to seek redress from the government for grievances. Until the Patriot Act legalized secret arrests.
So, pretty much, those guarantees aren't guaranteed any more.

The right to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness is in the declaration of independence and some state constitutions. it is not in the federal.
I think the person who typed out all 10 ammendmnets in the bill of rights, is right on.

To smoke marijuana, to grow hemp, and to overthrow a regime that does not serve America.
I'm quite serious...read the Ninth Amendment.
