When I mentioned above about the "Will of the people" being enshrined in to the Constitution - most of it is the will of the people 200+ years ago, when it was the era of the musket which fired one round of a musket ball (lead ball). Given the high death toll attributed to more modern and fast firing guns in the U.S - makes the second amendment out of date and lethal cultural mistake, IMO.
And therein lies the problem with the constitution Mick. As the "will of the people" changed over the years so should've the constitution. An odd amendment or two is not enough.

The "will of the people" then and now is different.
