I don't consider them irrelevant except as to the extent the courts have. I believe them to be protective of the rights of States and municipalities to pass laws (as long as they are in accord with the Constitution."

Show me evidence the courts don't consider them irrelevant.

The reason the 9th and 10th have been ignored is because they are so vague as to be useless in legal terms.
They were a sop to the anti-federalists and no one expected that they would have any value other than to mollify opposition to the constitution.

You can't show me the evidence that courts DO consider them irrelevant..

-- Yet here you are, clearly stating that the 9th & 10th are vague, irrelevent, & useless.
You've displayed your contempt for our constitutions BOR's in so doing, and now you're trying to weasel word your way out of your original "sop" statement, quoted just above.

-- You have no honor..
