That's what i've been saying for a long time now, to anyone that will bother to listen. Every single point of the constitution AND the BoR is every bit as important as every OTHER single point. Where we start to lose those rights is when some people kick back and say to themselves 'well that doesn't affect me' instead of thinking 'that COULD affect me someday'. The right to bear arms now could be your right to habeaus corpus tomorrow or even further erosions of your privacy rights. Without totally and completely demanding of your representatives ALL of your rights, they could be whittled away over time and then you'll realize that it's too late.
