In order to "outlaw" or ban guns, the 2nd would have to be repealed, and that would involve a new amendment repealing the 2nd. And that would require ratification by 2/3 of the state legislatures. (note: there are other methods to have an amendment repealed)

Can we say 'snowball's chance'? ;-)
I wish that were the case, but I am afraid that if the Supreme Court gets Obama appointees, the constitution won't mean that much. We have seen what activist judges have done in the past. All too often the judiciary has interpreted constitutional intent counter to what the constitution actually means.
