is intended to be amended and changed, that's the whole point of it.

I'm pro-constitution, all the way. Your position isn't 'pro-constitution', it's 'pro-guns rights'. There's a difference.

Unless you have other ideas on how to keep weapons in the USA out of the hands of psychotics who like to kill lots and lots of people. I'm open to hearing solutions that won't take 30 years to implement! What can be done right now?
