Cruz is right about the Democrats intent but I don't believe that Kavanaugh will be as 1A/2A friendly as we would like.

He's way better then a Pelosi/Schumer pick.  His overall record is outstanding, why start with the "he ain't perfect" stuff.  Consider the alternative.

He left me with the impression that his 2A rulings are going to be in accordance with the "common use" mentality instead of what the Constitution says. And I kinda got the impression that he's an activist judge instead of a Constitutional judge. So, I don't expect much to change. But, he's probably going to be better than what the Democrats would put in that seat.

He is using the "common use" argument  because that is the language of Hell vs DC, the landmark SCOTUS decision on the 2A.  My concealed weapon is in common use, even though I've never had to fire it in self-defense, yet.  Fienstein attacked that "common use" argument, despite what SCOTUS ruled, claiming that if you aren't using it every minute it is not common use.   That's the DEMs new talking point, and the one that the "machinegun mouth" uses on his Twitter account.

Swinestein is trying to have it both ways...AR15s  are not in common use yet they are used so often that they must be banned (For the childrens)

Maybe we need to estimate the number of rounds fired by AR15 owners per year with no one injured or property damaged

I'll  bet that number would be very large
