I would agree, with the exception of the 22nd Amendment, term limiting Presidents.

Her and anyone helping her is part of a conspiracy to circumvent the constitution and should be prosecuted under RICO.

“Higher up judges always seem to step in immediately however whenever a republican judge rules in favor of some republican somewhere though!”

That Hawaiian guy overruled half of Trump’s agenda.

Yup- sad that our side doesn’t have judges that will step in immediately and over-rule some liberal judge’s orders or liberal governor’s orders etc-

Exactly! That’s one of our God given rights, not a privilege that can be taken away like we are children!

Just like no GOP attorney generals prosecute anything because they might get jumped like Ken Paxton. They get the Republicans to eat their own.

At least in Arizona, our votes still count in the GOP primary and we could vote worthless Brnovich into third place when he ran for the senate.

There is an argument to be made that by limiting the scope only to the office of the president that it is a "Bill of Attainder". I personally am of the option that all elected officials should be limited to two terms.

Now if that is two terms in any office, two terms for life or one term in office followed by a term in prison is up for debate.

So violation is a ticket that will be thrown out by thr courts eventually.

Do nothing, but claim you did something. That’s the leftist way

Socialism is a national health emergency, that’s what you’re ultimately saying.

Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen shared the following statement following the announcement:

“Today, Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham issued an emergency order temporarily suspending open and concealed carry laws in Albuquerque and throughout Bernalillo County for the next 30 days. This move has been positioned as a response to the alarming and tragic rise in gun violence, particularly the heart-wrenching death of an 11-year-old boy this past week.

First and foremost, every lost life is a tragedy, and the well-being of our community is of paramount concern to the Bernalillo County Sheriff’s Office. We share in the collective grief and urgency to address this issue.

However, as the elected Sheriff, I have reservations regarding this order. While I understand and appreciate the urgency, the temporary ban challenges the foundation of our Constitution, which I swore an oath to uphold. I am wary of placing my deputies in positions that could lead to civil liability conflicts, as well as the potential risks posed by prohibiting law-abiding citizens from their constitutional right to self-defense.

I was elected to represent and safeguard all constituents and to ensure the balance between our rights and public safety is maintained. That means we must critically evaluate any proposed solution to the deeply rooted issue of gun violence, ensuring we both protect our community and uphold the values that define us as a nation.

———————————

New Mexico Senate Republican Leader Greg Baca issued the following statement:

“A child is murdered, the perpetrator is still on the loose, and what does the governor do? She throws the mayor of Albuquerque under the bus and then targets law-abiding citizens with an unconstitutional gun order. Tragically, this is what we have come to expect from an administration that refuses to take responsibility for the crime epidemic gripping our state. It is time for the governor to stop pointing fingers and admit that her soft-on-crime approach has failed and put the safety of all New Mexicans in great jeopardy.”

Ensuring that more 11 year olds will be killed by outlaws who do not obey any laws.

So you buy a firearm from a gun store in Albuquerque...as soon as you walk out the door, you’re breaking her rule.

What if you’re a legal gun owner and you want to sight in your bolt action .308 rifle for deer hunting in the next 30 days, will every one at the gun club be arrested by the next state cop to use the range?

Grisham is a piece of work.

” only 30 days. “

It was supposed to be only 3 days to flatten the curve too.

“I’m sure those lovable gang-bangers, drug dealers (but I repeat myself), and sex traffickers will promptly obey this edict and leave their gats at home.”

I was thinking the same thing!
