They could have passed a draconian ban on guns, and overridden his veto.

So instead of standing for his beliefs, he politicized and compromised away the very rights he swore to uphold?

How will it be any different at the fed level ???

He worked with the gun groups that would be effected by the compromise, came to an agreement everybody thought would be best, and implemented it.

Yes, in the real world where we all live, you sometimes don’t get everything that you want, and compromising is better than not.

It’s not about “rights he swore to uphold”. At this time, no court has found AWBs to be unconstitutional anyway, even if they should be.

Some people want to tilt at windmills.
