Our rights have to be explicitly stated? Are you familiar with the 10th amendment?

If they were not explicitly mentioned in the Constitution, they are covered under:

Amendment X
The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people.
