God-given, unalienable rights cannot be taken by the government or the indivdual, and you know it.

What are you talking about? Unalienable "rights" are violated all the time. Sometimes it's criminal, sometimes it's not. You, however, are claiming that the Constitution mandates that particular criminal laws must exist in every state. You're missing the whole point of federalism.

The main reason for having a Bill of Rights is to make sure that all Americans, no matter what state they live in, have their unalienable rights protected.
