Is the swingman retiring?

Our Constitution is relatively short and broad, it opens itself up to being interpreted and reinterpreted because it really doesn't give a lot or specifics. 

So the problem with saying "original intent" is we have to always ask "Whose original intent?".  

I just try to use a common sense deduction.  The second amendment.  One group says we should be able to own drones armed with hellfire missiles, and the other side says we should be limited to the weapons that were available when it was written.  

The problem is attempting to be consistent.  I have no trouble assuming an Air force fits within the context of the Constitution.  I do not believe abortion does.  How can i say one without the other?  To me it seems reasonable.
