Prior to passing his first big hurdle on a 51-49 Senate cloture vote Friday morning, Supreme Court Nominee Judge Brett Kavanaugh was once again lambasted by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) over his “extreme view on guns.”
“When I asked Judge Kavanaugh about his views that if a gun is in common use it cannot be regulated,” Sen. Feinstein recalled, “he replied this way, and I quote, ‘There are millions and millions and millions of semiautomatic rifles that are possessed so that seems to fit common use and not be a dangerous and unusual weapon.’”

Why didn't Feinstein petition Obama or Clinton or Johnson or Kennedy or Roosevelt to ban guns? She's been in power for decades. I bet Feinstein's Chinese Spy Driver carried a weapon during the 30 years she covered for him.
Kavanaugh rejected the use of a test that balanced the state’s interest in public safety with the right to bear arms. Instead, he called on gun laws to be weighed based on “text, history, and tradition” and “by appropriate analogues thereto when dealing with modern weapons and new circumstances.”In short, Kavanaugh’s test asks whether a gun law or regulation has been historically or traditionally accepted, instead of deciding whether a local, state, or federal government’s interest in public safety outweighs constitutional protections for gun ownership.
On the historical and traditional grounds, Kavanaugh argued that the ban on semiautomatic rifles and handgun registration requirements are unconstitutional. He reasoned that semiautomatic rifles “have not traditionally been banned and are in common use by law-abiding citizens for self-defense in the home, hunting, and other lawful uses.”
