The US structure of law and government does an "allow" for anything. It only restricts what is unlawful. I don't recall what the term for the type of constitution your are referring to. It is common in modern democracies of Europe, where it delineates every little right. The US Constitution BOR does not restrict the citizenry, only the government.
Exactly, and it explicitly states that the government may not infringe on my right to keep and bear arms.
