To an extent, true.

I just think there are not enough state legislatures to go for it.

Also opens the door to possible dangerous decisions......

Lee’sGhost in #43 sums it up.

Even if an amendment convention was dangerous (it isn't) what is there to lose? America 2014 is a police state and the screws tighten every day. There is every reason to take the sorts of measures our founding generation took. Thank God they bequeathed to us a peaceful way to address grievances.

There is more resistance among the states than we realize, it just never makes the news. Over half the states opposed Obamacare in court, they all chafe under unfunded mandates, they can't defend their borders and are ordered to pay social services for foreigners. There is plenty of outrage among the states that crosses the red/blue divide.
