    Default National Firearms Act of 1934

    Okay, I'm sure it's already been discussed long ago, and I'm just curious if the SCOTUS weighed in on this, but I don't see things being gray, open to interpretation, or to be infringed in any way when it comes to the 2nd Amendment. Granted, I don't see people having the *need* to be toting M67 handgrenades, but I don't see any flexibility in "SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED." So wouldn't one think that with enough push we would be able to have the NFA repealed on the grounds of being unconstitutional? I know it would be next to impossible now, in the wake of recent events, but someday... right?

    If you had an extra 200-500m around, and a few specific individuals who had standing there are number of groups that would take the case. That is the dollar amount that has been privately talked about in the past.

    Biggest thing is that you have to find someone or some group that has been harmed by the NFA being inacted. Seeing as how many rich guys have made lots and lots of money due to the NFA I don't see it being repealed anytime soon.
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?
