On this day in 1791 the Bill of Rights was ratified by Virginia. According to their by-laws this made it legal in the United States.
While not a complete list of your rights (there are many millions of those) it was a good start. The 9th amendment makes this concept clear:
The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.
