Most Americans would consider their rights to be inalienable.

Huh? I don't get the comment with respect to mine. Stating that the Second defines a pre-existing right, i.e. a right ordained by God (or "inherent to the human condition" if your a secularist), is the essential definition of an "inalienable" right, that was the purpose of the BOR in a nutshell.

Aside from that, the mere fact that the idiots who are running the show now were elected by Americans would indicated that a majority either don't consider that to be true at this time or are to stupid to care...
