NFA Being Repealed?!

It is a good day for the Second Amendment!
On August 5th, a federal judge in Texas has ruled in favor of Palmetto State Armory, Gun Owners of America and allies that the NFA is unconstitutional. A 7 day stay has been placed to give the gov time to respond.
This is HUGE! Keep in mind, the Trump DOJ/AG can literally kill the NFA by electing not to contest the ruling. However, I have little faith the gov is going to give up the NFA so easily, even in a Trump controlled White House.
This was all made possible by congress dropping the NFA tax stamp fee to $0. The NFA has always been upheld in courts, not because it does not violate our rights, but because it was a tax. The courts have always defended congress’ right to tax citizens and therefore the NFA was always (wrongfully IMO) upheld as constitutional. This is a similar argument that made the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) pass the courts.
When congress removed the $200 tax stamp, it effectively removed the only justification the courts ever had to keep it, TAXES.
We need to keep the pressure on Trump to kill the NFA!

What’s silly about the argument for the NFA, is saying the authority to tax items also gives the government the authority to register the items.
I’m excited that I’ll be able to buy suppressors directly in gun stores.

Oh yeah, the NFA is and always has been unconstitutional IMO.

Anything that restricts Americans’ rights to bare arms is unconstitutional, full stop.
If I’m truly radical about something it’s the 2A. I’m an absolutist when it comes to that amendment.

Next thing you are going to tell me is that the taxing power gives the government the authority to make people purchase a service - for example, health insurance.

Only for that Circuit's jurisdiction.
