owning people was never part of the bill of rights

Gun ownership isn't in the constitution, it's an amendment.

However, the constitution does have the 3/5 clause which is 100% about slavery

Owning handguns ain't either.

Anyway, the constitution was written to specifically enable slavery, so your point is moot.
