So yes, you see it as a compromise, albeit one where your side gave more. You must admit, though, that there will now be guns in the hands of civilians in DC. Can't you see that is something you wanted? Yes, yes, the rest of it pisses you off to no end, but isn't that fact alone at least a small victory for what I see as your side?
