Beware of an Article 5 convention. Push the Amendments, by all means, but a convention could be hijacked.

Keep in mind that those who ignore the supreme law of the land now are no more likely to pay attention to one more Amendment (or a dozen) than a mass murderer will be swayed from their crimes by another gun law.
