You'd also not be able to own guns, or have freedom or religion or speech. Look up the meaning of Amendment why don't you.

States could also do whatever they wanted until the 14th Amendment incorporated the Constitution down to them. Yes, that does mean states could have all the gun control laws they want (pursuant to their own constitutions) until it was explicitly incorporated in 2010.
