Well, back then, you wouldn't be executed for your thoughts, even today. Some people supported it, called the Federalists, because those people thought that the Constitution stated their rights and were satisfied with it for some reason.

But, there were some colonists who thought that the plan might result in a strong national government, which might turn into monarchy (king rule over land- King George 3's tight rule over Britain was an influence of chenges in the Constitution) which was the last thing they wanted.

So a Bill of Rights was added to the Constitution which stated the basic of people which cannot be taken away for any reason, even race, looks, complexion, or just to favor the branches of government.

And then all 13 colonies ratified the Constitution (along with the Bill of Rights). And that is the modern document today, still intact. Hope that answers your question.
