This exactly! It often surprises people that I think for example that the second Amendment needs, at the very least, revision since it's now anachronistic. The problem is that whole rule of law thing.

The issue isn't that the Constitution is above changing. The issue is overriding it's meaning without going through the process of actually changing it. That's what's destroying the foundation of our civilization.
