Guns should only be in the hands of the military and/or civilians who are capable of handling guns without killing others and themselves (intentional or accidental).
How you would define someone as "capable to operate a firearm" I will have to leave to someone more knowledgeable on the subject.
EDIT: Oh, and no heavy weapons for civilians. There is no reason to have a M249 SAW or a rocketlauncher for hunting or a weapon-hoarding hobby.
I'm leaning more on the ban weapons side of things. It just seems silly to me that you can defend unrestricted access to weapons by stating an amendment that was created in a time where weapons were very limited in their capabilities. I doubt the founding fathers would anticipate something as...efficient.

Currently those weapons are heavily regulated by the ATF, and the 1986 Hughes Amendment.

Anyone who can pass a background check and does not have any mental deficiencies is currently a person who can own and operate a firearm. I do think there are some people who just should not own firearms because they have no sense of firearm safety, which annoys me because it makes all firearms owners look irresponsible.
