	There is indeed a lot of stuff in the orginal Constitution that's
no good; and I'm also in favor of gun control.  BUT, I would prefer a
Constitutional amendment rather than the attitude "well, if this part of
the Constitution is no good, let's ignore it."  Once we've started that, 
I'd worry a lot about my favorite parts (you know, freedom of speech and
that stuff).  Of course, if gun control won't pass, you can be even more
sure that an amendment wouldn't either...
