Yeah, how about when a state passes a ban on partial birth abortion?

Isn’t that the “will of the people” of that state?

Should the Supreme Court be able to strike down this decision?

Oh, no. Some rights are absolute. We’re just talking about self defense and insurance against tyrants here, so there’s no need to be too extreme in defense the RKBA. Now, a woman’s right to murder-by-vacuum her own unborn child, that we can’t mess with.

The RTKBA is protected and listed in the Constitution, abortion isn’t.

That should answer your question.

In fact, the harder you have to conjure to find a given right in the Constitution, the more absolute we know that right is.
