16. Means that just because certain rights are explicitly protected doesn't mean you don't have others.

In other words, just because the constitution doesn't explicitly mention a right to privacy doesn't mean you don't HAVE one. It just means that they addressed the most important issues of the time, but wanted to cover any future omissions by siding with the average person.
