When the Framers were putting together the Constitution in Philadelphia in the summer of 1787, they knew the states would not adopt it without written guarantees that the new central government would respect natural rights.
The supporters of the Constitution promised political leaders in the states that the written guarantees would soon be added as amendments, and they were. By late 1791, the Bill of Rights was ratified and added to the new Constitution.
The purpose of the Bill of Rights was to assure all in America that their natural rights — areas of human choices for which a permission slip from the government cannot be required and in which the government cannot coerce compliance with its wishes — would not be impaired by the federal government.

Watch the wanna be Hitler America
Our protections under the Bill of Rights evaporated when our "representatives" passed the Patriot Act. But because the reasoning was "preventing terrorism", you non-thinking lemmings and sheep went hoarse and broke your wrists clapping and cheering. Now you are photographed, listened to, and watched on a scale that would make Mao and Hitler wet their pants in envy.
YOU keep cheering. I'll keep buying guns and ammo.
YOU keep thinking its for your "protection". I'll keep telling you the truth.
