Answer 1

B.

The Bill of Rights (which is really just the first ten Amendments to the US Constitution) grants all kinds of "rights" to citizens of the US.

The fact that it GRANTS rights is what makes it so funny (or is that "sad") that so many otherwise smart people want Constitutional amendments to take rights away from folks they don't like!

I guess that just goes to prove that the Constitution protects your right to be daft if you so chose!
