It's even worse than that: Infringement is thanks to the 10th Amendment but if you knock down one of the Amendments of the Bill of Rights, it makes the rest more susceptible for the same. And there could be further problems if you get rid of the Amendment that reserves power to the states - we could end up with a much more powerful federal government.
So even if you painstakingly got rid of all the garbage, there is no way to prevent it from building back up again.
Their violation of the 2nd isn't because of the 10th. That's just rationale to run this person through the system. It's true there has been debate on that forever (and if states just decide not to follow the courts then we have fun times ahead) but from the perspective of federal courts, incorporation is settled law especially when it comes to the bill of rights.
We should make all laws expire automatically.
