What does with certain inalienable rights mean?
This is a line from the US declaration of Independence from Great Britain. "that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness" It is an expansion on a train of thought in British (and therefore American) legal thinking at the time, that a Government cannot take away certain rights nor can people voluntarily give them up this is what "unalienable" means - "can't be got rid of" so it means basically "people have some rights which are untouchable by anyone" the Declaration goes on to list some of these rights "Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness"

Who bestow unalienable rights?
For the religiously inclined, inalienable rights are bestowed by the Creator. For the less religious, we choose to bestow them upon ourselves. The assertion that a right is inalienable only means that we don't think it should ever be violated, it doesn't mean that in reality someone will not violate it. There does not seem to be any cosmic agency that is actively protecting such rights. Citizens of the US, for example, are said by the founding fathers to be endowed by their Creator with the inalienable right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Yet, people still get murdered, thus depriving them of all three of those things.

What did John locked have to do with the Declaration of Independence?
John Locke (Not John Locked) was the inventer of The Social Contract. Locke's Contract states that people had certain unalienable rights, mainly life, liberty, and property. The authors of the Declaration of Independence were protesting British rule over the American colonies, claiming that the British government had violated these rights. (The Declaration of Independence features "the pursuit of happiness" instead of property as the third unalienable right) *Unalienable rights mean rights that are automatically given to everyone*
