The Federalists thought the existing laws would be enough to protect individual rights and the B of R was not necessary.
The Bill of Rights (Ten Amendments) were adopted because the states were promised a Bill of Rights. This was during the Ratification (approval) of the Constitution. Anti-federalists did not support the Constitution and did not Ratify it. Federalists ratified it because of their own points of view. they believed a Constitution was a good sense of power, while Anti-federalists wanted a Bill of Rights, belived that the Constitution would give the Central government too much power in the expense of the state governments. Congress did not want to destroy harmony among the states because they had promised the Anti-federalists a bill of rights. The Bill of rights was added to the Constitution in 1791 in Deleware.
the Federalist were all for the constitution and the anti-federalist were against it because they thought it needed a bill of rights to protect individual rights!

Yes. And when that happens, courts take a dim view of it, usually in favor of a defendant whose rights have been violated, even to the point of dismissing charges.
The origins of the Bill of Rights started during the debate over the ratification of the newly-written Constitution. The Federalists, under James Madison, Alexander Hamilton and John Jay supported a strong federal government, supporting the views that a powerful central government was necessary to keep a country together. The opposite view, the fear of a central government becoming too powerful, was championed by Thomas Jefferson and Patrick Henry. The Federalists backed up the Constitution because it upheld a strong federal government over state governments while the Anti-Federalists strongly opposed this in favor of states' rights. To encourage ratification, Madison, Hamilton and Jay wrote the Federalist Papers outlining their views on the idea of a strong central government. Eventually, the Federalists won out and the Constitution was ratified, but only after the Federalists provided certain provisions that protected individual freedoms and state sovereignty. The Bill of Rights are collectively the first ten amendments of the Constitution, a reassurance to the state-rightists in the guarantee of individual freedoms, the limit of government power and the reservation of power to the states and public. As an aside, Madison presented 12 "rights" that were rejected by the convention.

He agreed to the Louisiana Purchase through loose interpretation of the Constitution, which was actually a characteristic of the Federalists, not the Republicans. The Louisiana Purchase also diminished the power of state governments, which was against the Republican view of state's rights.

Science has nothing to do with rights with respect to the law. What is the purpose for asking the question?
Emma Burke's point of view can vary depending on the context. Generally, she is known for advocating for social justice, women's rights, and LGBTQ+ rights. She often speaks out against discrimination and inequality in society.
Unlike the prevailing Greek view that women were inferior to men and belonged in the domestic sphere, Plato believed that women should have equal access to education and should be able to contribute to society in the same ways as men. He argued for equality between men and women in terms of intellectual capabilities and the ability to govern.
he was the head of the opposite party, the democratic republicans. Thus, his opinions were the oposite of that of the federalists.
