Agree. Scott was put in the impossible position of having to veto a fairly reasonable bill with a couple of unacceptable elements, which would have been political suicide. Now the NRA can do what is should do, file the suit and get the whole damn thing declared unconstitutional.

If Scott had a line-item veto power then I think a different outcome would have been possible.

No sir. The answer was plain and simple VETO. The end. There was nothing hard about it. VETO the bill and hear some whining and moaning from the left for a few days and that's it, move on. Elections have consequences but apparently only when democrats win them.

As far as the NRA defeating this in court well I support it but even if successful it will take a long long time. In the interim we will only face a more gun control from and very emboldened left.

This was a huge defeat that is going to effect Republicans for years to come.
