Which purpose of government, as described in the Preamble to the U. S. Constitution, involves protecting Americans from each other? Select one:

from what ive read and my understanding i believe its domestic tranquility

it is a part of john locke's natural rights popular during the age of enlightenment that people had inalienable rights to life, liberty and property. this was reflected by thomas jefferson in his declaration of independence as rights to life,liberty and the pursuit of happiness.
