How can the government deny your protected rights as a citizen?

The government can deny your right if they believe doing so will help the safety of other people or the rights of other people. They do so by passing a act (The patriot act, war measures act, enabling act etc. Etc.)
For example the patriot act was passed in 2001 and has only gotten stronger, and stricter since then. It gives the gov't the right to go through ANY phonecalls or internet history that is "suspected" of terrorism. This clearly denies everyone their rights to have their privacy.
