Federal Appeals Court Delivers Bad News to New Mexico's Gun-Banning Governor
Bearing Arms ^ | 3/18/24 | Cam Edwards

New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham's bid to block lawful concealed carry in public parks in the state's most populous city and county took a major hit on Monday when the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals rejected her request to stay a lower court injunction and allow law enforcement to start issuing civil fines to licensed concealed carry holders caught with a pistol in parks in Albuquerque and Bernalillo County.

Firearms Policy Coalition @gunpolicy ยท Follow LEGAL ALERT: The Tenth Circuit has denied the New Mexico Governor's motion to stay the preliminary injunction against her public park carry ban, which means the ban cannot be enforced while her appeal continues.

Originally, you will remember, Grisham tried to ban concealed carry everywhere in Albuquerque and Bernalillo County, but a federal judge shot that down fairly quickly. Grisham responded by amending her public health order to "only" ban concealed carry in parks and playgrounds, but the district court judge limited that even further by granting an injunction against enforcing her order in public parks while allowing the ban in playgrounds to remain in effect.

In her appeal to the Tenth Circuit, Grisham and her attorneys argued that concealed carry bans in public parks are well within the national tradition of gun ownership, citing "well over a hundred laws prohibiting guns in parks" that were adopted in the latter half of the 19th century and early 20th century. According to the anti-gun governor, those ordinances were part of a broader tradition of "prohibiting guns in crowded public forums and gathering places and in schools."

Until these leftist oligarchs pay a real price for their unconstitutional crimes, they will continue to do so.

The safest of the safe -those with concealed carry permits- are being targeted for a “health emergency”. Concealed carry of fentanyl is okay.

She’ll just ignore it.

Signs are up in state parks all around me. Given the pot operations and re-introduced wolves (and hungry bears waking up), that’s pretty much where I want to carry a firearm.
