Wow!! By the skin of their teeth. In NM, the legislative session ends with this type of bill not eligible for reintroduction for two years until January 2012 (unless Gov. Martinez calls for it.) Even if it would have passed the NM Senate, it would have had to go back to the house for concurrence and would have run out of time also.

There will be a lot of pissed off legislators as holding up this bill until adjournment meant less controversial and maybe necessary bills died too. It remains to be seen what other damage was done.

> legislation aimed at curbing gun violence

Commie bias, as always.

It is NOT legislation aimed at curbing “gun violence”, whatever that’s supposed to mean.

It IS legislation aimed at curbing the right of the citizens to keep and bear arms in defense of themselves, their families, and their property, against criminals and tyrants alike.

The New Mexico Legislature will not send legislation aimed at curbing gun violence to Gov. Susana Martinez’s desk,...

Just a bit slanted and trusting of this reporter.

That may be the stated aim, but the real aim is universal registration of gun owners.

I wonder how many gun shows already are providing the opportunity for background checks. My gun club sponsors two gun shows per year & we require that they go through the regular system. We even provide a table for private sales, although if people want to take their guns outside they can do what they want.

Well. Colorado resident can still go to NM to buy and trade their guns legally.

Gun owners should send their thanks to the Republicans who filibustered till quitting time to save their Second Amendment rights. Bravo to them!

The communists lose one. Darth Vader, er, I mean, Dear Leader will NOT be pleased. They are all in this push behind the scenes...except for Plugs, he’s out in the open in Colorado.

The real danger here is that the Governor announced early on that if it came to her desk, she would sign it.

Real disaster diverted and one of the reasons I have a "no chicks" rule, when it comes to politics

“The New Mexico Legislature will not send legislation aimed at curbing gun violence to Gov. Susana Martinez’s desk...”

A big Hoo-rah for the great state of New Mexico.
