With the country and state facing serious problems, when Democratic “leaders” like Bryan Townsend, BHL, Carney, Coons simply shrug and say “our hands are tied” young people are quite right to say “Fuck it. They all suck.”
Here is a rare instance of a Democratic Governor saying – My Hands are not fucking tied.
Open And Concealed Carry Suspended In Albuquerque and Bernalillo County
An 11-year old kid was killed this week after an Albuquerque Isotopes baseball game, in a road rage incident. New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham decided enough was enough, and imposed a suspension on open and concealed carry for 30 days in Albuquerque and the surrounding county.
Lujan Grisham said she anticipated legal challenges to this action, and some other officials in the state quickly criticized the move and suggested it was unconstitutional. But she defended the step as vitally necessary for public safety.
The governor said the suspension was a civil order and would be enforced by the state police, rather than any local law enforcement agency. The people who violate the measure would face fines.
Albuquerque, which is the state’s most populous city with more than half a million residents, has in recent years endured a painful increase in gun violence. In each of the last two years, the city set records in terms of homicides. Other communities across the country have also experienced bleak increases in gun violence in recent years.
