However at the time it made sense but constitutions should be fluid and ever changing to reflect society.

Put it to the people at least.

If you had Americans vote on whether to change the constitution to ban guns, it would fail miserably. Besides, how would you enforce that if it did pass? Are you gonna go door to door and round them up? That sounds like the actions of a police state. It would also be a guaranteed way to start a civil war. I know that I would refuse to give up something I purchased legally whether there was a buy back program or not. I would equate that to stealing and people should steal from me at their own risk.
