Why the “in common use” obsession by our side? It bites us in the ass every time.

So a court rules that a machine gun ban is Constitutional because machine guns aren’t in common use? Hmmm… Did 2A groups never see that coming? They gave the anti’s a way out. This “originalist” theory- the correct one by the way, which 2A groups advocate is incompatible with the other theory they advocate, “in common use”.
If we are to take the Second Amendment as it was written, when it was written, then clearly, all arms “laws” are un-Constitutional. “Arms” being all the terrible and deadly implements of the soldier… “Militia” remember? Yet even in this case, “Instead, he faults the Government for not ‘cit[ing] any statistics to support’ its arguments that machineguns are not in common use for lawful purposes, inverting the burden he bears at Bruen step one.”
“Statistics”? How about, “shall not be infringed” for a “statistic”? It seems to the 2A groups, and movement as a whole, and “conservatives”-whatever they are, can’t fathom the simple things. It seems they can’t figure out the “KISS” method, Keep It Simple Stupid.
KISS = “Shall not be infringed”.
Equip, train, pray and never disarm.
