New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham Signs Trial Balloon ‘Emergency Order’ Suspending The Right To Carry Firearms In Public

New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham on Friday issued an emergency order suspending the right to carry firearms in public across Albuquerque and the surrounding county for at least 30 days in response to a spate of gun violence.

For those of you that think our path to the Great Reset was halted with the end of the lockdowns and vaccinations, I have news for you, it’s not over and we’re in the middle of Phase 2. In New Mexico, governor Michelle Lujan Grisham is right now floating a gun ban ‘trial balloon’ that is being closely watched for reaction from the civilian population. For those of you who think this ban is temporary, I will remind you of the ‘temporary’ Spanish-American War Telephone Tax of 1898 that continued to collect taxes until the year 2006.

When a strong man armed keepeth his palace, his goods are in peace: But when a stronger than he shall come upon him, and overcome him, he taketh from him all his armour wherein he trusted, and divideth his spoils.” Luke 11:21,22 (KJB)

America was a nation that obtained independence because we were willing to ‘fight the power’ that was oppressing us, to physically rise up against a tyrannical government, and settle the whole thing with bullets and bloodshed. Thomas Jefferson famously said “The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.” In 2023, we have no shortage of tyrannical governments and tin-pot dictators, but where are all the patriots? Let’s see how many other Liberal states will issue similar ’emergency orders’ on firearms.

New Mexico governor issues order suspending the right to carry firearms in public across Albuquerque

FROM THE AP: The Democratic governor said she expects legal challenges but was compelled to act because of recent shootings, including the death of an 11-year-old boy outside a minor league baseball stadium this week. Lujan Grisham said state police would be responsible for enforcing what amount to civil violations. Albuquerque police Chief Harold Medina said he won’t enforce it, and Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen said he’s uneasy about it because it raises too many questions about constitutional rights.

The firearms suspension, classified as an emergency public health order, applies to open and concealed carry in most public places, from city sidewalks to urban recreational parks. The restriction is tied to a threshold for violent crime rates currently only met by the metropolitan Albuquerque. Police and licensed security guards are exempt from the temporary ban.

Violators could face civil penalties and a fine of up to $5,000, gubernatorial spokeswoman Caroline Sweeney said. Under the order, residents still can transport guns to some private locations, such as a gun range or gun store, provided the firearm has a trigger lock or some other container or mechanism making it impossible to discharge.

 Lujan Grisham acknowledged not all law enforcement officials were on board with her decision.

“I welcome the debate and fight about how to make New Mexicans safer,” she said at a news conference, flanked by law enforcement officials, including the district attorney for the Albuquerque area.

John Allen said in a statement late Friday that he has reservations about the order but is ready to cooperate to tackle gun violence.

“While I understand and appreciate the urgency, the temporary ban challenges the foundation of our constitution, which I swore an oath to uphold,” Allen said. “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.”

Enforcing the governor’s order also could put Albuquerque police in a difficult position with the U.S. Department of Justice regarding a police reform settlement, said police spokesman Gilbert Gallegos.

“All of those are unsettled questions,” he said late Friday. READ MORE
