OK. That makes sense.

Even the Lefties know this is stupid.

>> American males need to stop voting with their Johnsons.

True, but I seriously doubt that any male with a working Johnson and even partial eyesight voted for Grisham as a result of thinking with the wrong head.

She cannot override the Second Amendment. It’s part of the Constitution. It can be changed only through the process by which the Constitution is changed.

She is in violation of the Constitution, but since our federal government doesn’t accept the Constitution, nothing will be done about it by the “justice” department.

She’s also in violation of the New Mexico state constitution. Did again it’s getting someone to actually act on it at

[TexasFreeper2009]

this should have been stayed by a judge IMMEDIATELY!

this is no different that suspending the 1st amendment, because of a made up emergency. It is preposterous.

“American males need to stop voting with their Johnsons.”

But mine reaches the computer screen to punch in my votes.

Can a Governor be recalled In New Mexico???

[Reno89519]

Probably, maybe, but that would take months. I think the federal court is quickest, impeachment second.

Our local oil patch paper opined this morning that a close reading of her order does not limit it to Albuquerque but statewide. The order has yearly “trigger” numbers of 1,000 violent crimes per 100,000 residents or 90 gun-related emergency room visits per 100,000 residents. For Lea county the most recent number is 2,312 and Hobbs has 1,415. violent crimes. So by that reading she could by edict impose the same sanctions on the politically conservative county and city. Unfortunately, the Hobbs News-Sun is subscription only and articles cannot be copied or linked from the e-edition.

Please note my comment at #30. MLG’s unconstitutional order is not limited to just ABQ and Bernalillo counties but could be expanded to any city or county that exceeds the crime limits stated in her order.

Can a Governor be recalled In New Mexico???

No, recall is not available in the NM constitution. Impeachment is available but extremely unlikely with Dim super-majorities in both houses of the legislature.

“Bernalillo county has also announced their district attornies will decline to prosecute anyone whose arrest stems from this order.”

I saw that two days ago.

Right? Many more humans die from abortions, than gunshots, every dang year!!

Biden appointed judge. They will be lucky to ever get a hearing.

Is it possible to jail 681,000
people for defying an illicit
decree? Even most democrats I
know enjoy their God given rights.
The American in me defiantly
wishes to strap on my pistol
and casually walk down Central
Avenue in Albuquerque. Perfectly
legal as long as I don’t enter any
establishment that sells liquor.
(In Kelly’s liquor establishment,
all employees are armed, and quite
the contradiction to state laws).
Kind of cool when you see a 20 year
old cutie packing a .44.
I believe it’s a pre-requisite to
employment.

If they can pack, why can’t I?
