Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

There were no individual rights that were originally protected in the Constitution, thus the Bill of Rights came into existence. But, there were multiple delegates, like George Mason, Elbridge Gerry, and Edmund Randolph, that did not want to sign the Constitution, as they believed it did not protect individual rights.
