This will force the direct question to SCOTUS and bring into play the Heller decision that clearly states that common firearms in this country are in fact covered by 2A.

There are several tens of millions of legally owned AR’s in our nation.

The AR is the best selling rifle platform in the history of our nation, and has been for the last decade.

The AR platform is the most widely used firearm in the USA in organized rifle sporting competitions.

If that clearly does not define “common” as used in the Heller decision, I do not know what does.

SCOTUS will stand behind the Heller decision. They have been dodging this question because it has not come directly before them. This time it will.

The AR platform has been around since AD 1958! 60 years!

To what purpose?

Even Scalia failed to noodle his own ‘logic’ fallacy when he wrote, “...the right secured by the Second Amendment is not unlimited.”.

Ergo: How can it NOT be unlimited, if it can not be infringed??

Heller was a RESTRICTION, not a loosening (the whole ‘defense of/while in the home’).

And, the whole “arms of the times” can be broadened to encompass the 1st (printing presses, flyers\criers vs. internet\etc.)

"SCOTUS will stand behind the Heller decision. They have been dodging this question because it has not come directly before them. This time it will."

Yes it has come directly before them and they declined to hear the case and let the lower court decision stand.

According to Deerfield Village Manager Kent Street, the city ordinance banning "assault rifles" was inspired by a similar ban in another Illinois town — Highland Park. In 2013, Highland enacted a ban that was challenged by one of the city’s residents and the Illinois State Rifle Association.

“The 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals held that legislation constitutional and the U.S. Supreme Court let the decision stand when it declined to take up the appeal,” the Chicago Tribune reported.

If you are relying on the U.S. Supreme Court to uphold your Natural Rights..... You will most assuredly lose those rights.
