since you asked....
The 9th amendment, actually, supported by the 4th amendment. Unless you are declaring mental illness to be a crime, of course.
(btw, I have no problem with people who have been declared mentally unfit to care for themselves in some kind of public procedure, being kept by the state, and denied the ability to have a gun, I'm just pointing out the places in the constitution that you asked about).
