They were put in the constitution to protect citizens from governments misusing their power. The government is so much more power than any one person and perhaps any one group.

However there are times when the rights go a little to far. Numerous times since 1968, introduced various proposals that attempted to protect the rights of the American Flag. On those occasions either congress or the Supreme Court protected the individual by saying burning the flag comes under the First Amendment -- freedom of expression.
