Governor of New Mexico amends order suspending right to carry firearms to focus on parks, playgrounds

Like I always say, the left cannot and will never get rid of the second amendment because they know that millions of their very own constituents are law-abiding gun owners, even in a blue state such as NM liberals love their guns. Not sure what this woman was thinking.

Not sure what this woman was thinking.

Maybe she was thinking that the way to get an epidemic of gun violence under control is to restrict guns....

Kind'a like the way to get cancer under control is to restrict cigarettes...

You know, reduce the things causing the problem....

But we understand that kind of logic doesn't exist in MAGA-world....

Maybe she was thinking that the way to get an epidemic of gun violence under control is to restrict guns....

Won’t work.

Kind'a like the way to get cancer under control is to restrict cigarettes...

Comparing boulders to carrots?

You know, reduce the things causing the problem....

Democrat failed policies

But we understand that kind of logic doesn't exist in MAGA-world....

NM is not MAGA-world. It’s bluer than the sky

Bass: Won’t work.

Banning guns won't reduce gun violence?

Sensible gun laws are badly needed.

Banning guns won't reduce gun violence?

The Democrats in NM don’t think so.

Maybe she was thinking that the way to get an epidemic of gun violence under control is to restrict guns....

Won’t work.

And?

Kind'a like the way to get cancer under control is to restrict cigarettes...

Comparing boulders to carrots?

How?

You know, reduce the things causing the problem....

Democrat failed policies

What?

But we understand that kind of logic doesn't exist in MAGA-world....

NM is not MAGA-world. It’s bluer than the sky

So?

Bass, would banning guns nationwide reduce gun violence?

Gunfire and violent crime in Albuquerque have continued unabated in the week.

Not just violent crime. Like many other big cities in the US, a crime spree of group thieving, a whole social class of druged out zombies on the streets, immigrants flooding in. Folks are gonna need their guns more than ever because of the Governors anti-American/family actions.

would banning guns nationwide reduce gun violence?

No, because they would find something else to use and I would add that more people would die because the good people would have nothing or less to defend themselves with.

That is not an argument for not having sensible gun laws. More children are killed by guns than in road accidents. Children at schools are killed in brutal mass shootings.

Well, talk to the Democrats, they could have changed the law twice and they didn’t.

More children are killed by guns than in road accidents. Children at schools are killed in brutal mass shootings.

More people die from choking, you do know that right?

More children do not die from choking.

"Choking is a leading cause of injury and death among children, especially those aged 3 or younger. In the United States, an average of 140 children choke to death each year, and thousands of others end up requiring emergency care after a choking episode."

In 2021, 2,600 children died from guns.

I hold all politicians responsible for gun homicides and the mass shootings of children which have also happened in Republican states like Texas.

Seems like Covid is.

"Choking is a leading cause of injury and death among children, especially those aged 3 or younger. 

Well, there you go.

I hold all politicians responsible for gun homicides

I hold Democrats responsible since they are the ones screaming the loudest about gun control. All talk and zero action when they had majorities.

> and the mass shootings of children which have also happened in Republican states like Texas.

In mostly minority areas, why do they have guns? Why so many? Maybe because of the high crime? Should they just become another statistic?

Once again we get the typical false narrative from our gun-nutter friends....

No one is talking about revoking the 2nd Amendment...we're talking about sensible gun control - those supported by a large majority of Americans - as quoted by a FOX NEWS POLL....

-- Requiring criminal background checks on all gun buyers (87%)

-- Raising the legal age to buy a gun to 21 (81%)

-- Requiring mental health checks on gun buyers (80%)

-- Allowing police to take guns from those considered a danger to themselves or others (80%)

-- Requiring a 30-day waiting period for all gun purchases (77%)

https://www.foxnews.com/official-polls/fox-news-poll-voters-favor-gun-limits-arming-citizens-reduce-gun-violence

Legitimate gun enthusiasts also support these measures...

Then you have the gun-nutters who only keep their firearms because it gives them their only sense of power. They're likely poor, uneducated, and easily manipulated - and worship their guns above their own children...

Their guns are part of their self-identity...take them away and they feel naked and powerless...

Yes we all know how dangerous knives are. I mean they kill literally (checks watch) dozens a year in Japan.

Once again we get the typical false narrative from our gun-nutter friends....

Americans Red and Blue love their guns. Why would they not?

No one is talking about revoking the 2nd Amendment...we're talking about sensible gun control - those supported by a large majority of Americans - as quoted by a FOX NEWS POLL....

Well, most gun owners don’t believe that so…

-- Requiring criminal background checks on all gun buyers (87%)

No, I don’t want the government to have any information on me, don’t trust them.

-- Raising the legal age to buy a gun to 21 (81%)

Depends, if you live on a farm or in a violent neighborhood, I think that should be taken into consideration.

-- Requiring mental health checks on gun buyers (80%)

Theyre not doing it now on the streets with the homeless, if they can’t even start that they won’t do with regarding the gun issue.

-- Allowing police to take guns from those considered a danger to themselves or others (80%)

If it is determined beyond a reasonable doubt, then yes.

-- Requiring a 30-day waiting period for all gun purchases (77%)

I’m ok with that.

Legitimate gun enthusiasts also support these measures...

Then you have the gun-nutters who only keep their firearms because it gives them their only sense of power.

Criminals, Gang bangers, Mafia, thugs

They're likely poor, uneducated, and easily manipulated - and worship their guns above their own children... 

Speculation

Their guns are part of their self-identity...take them away and they feel naked and powerless...

If so, that’s their choice.

Once again we get the typical false narrative from our gun-nutter friends....

Americans Red and Blue love their guns. Why would they not?

Only gun-nutters "love" their guns - firearms enthusiasts respect and admire them....big difference..

*No one is talking about revoking the 2nd Amendment...we're talking about sensible gun control - those supported by a large majority of Americans - as quoted by a FOX NEWS POLL....*

Fox poll proved you wrong...or is Fox spreading misinformation?

-- Requiring criminal background checks on all gun buyers (87%)

No, I don’t want the government to have any information on me, don’t trust them.

OK, you're in the 13% minority...

-- Raising the legal age to buy a gun to 21 (81%)

Depends, if you live on a farm or in a violent neighborhood, I think that should be taken into consideration.

OK, you're in the 19% minority....

-- Requiring mental health checks on gun buyers (80%)

Theyre not doing it now on the streets with the homeless, if they can’t even start that they won’t do with regarding the gun issue.

20% miniorty....

-- Allowing police to take guns from those considered a danger to themselves or others (80%)

If it is determined beyond a reasonable doubt, then yes.

Good...you're for gun control...

-- Requiring a 30-day waiting period for all gun purchases (77%)

I’m ok with that.

Criminals, Gang bangers, Mafia, thugs

Neo-Nazi MAGA white supremacists, Proud Bois, Three-Percenters...

Thanks for agreeing with me...

Yes we all know how dangerous knives are. I mean they kill literally (checks watch) dozens a year in Japan.

A weapon is a weapon.

A weapon is a weapon.

I want a tactical nuclear missile. May I?

I agree! Assault rifles are for amateurs. Under the Second Amendment, arms are arms. Personally, I want a surface-to-air rocket launcher to protect me and mine. Hope that’s ok with the 2-Amend people.

"Choking is a leading cause of injury and death among children, especially those aged 3 or younger. 

Well, there you go.

How can you say that when I pointed out your gross errors? 140 children die from choking. 2,600 from guns.

I hold all politicians responsible for gun homicides

I hold Democrats responsible since they are the ones screaming the loudest about gun control. All talk and zero action when they had majorities.

and the mass shootings of children which have also happened in Republican states like Texas.

There you go then you are not interested in reducing gun homicides especially those involving children. You just want to blame the democrats for it all.

A gun has a single use. To kill.

A hammer, knife, or table leg are not designed to kill.

Only gun-nutters "love" their guns - firearms enthusiasts respect and admire them....big difference..

No difference, a gun owner is a "gun owner."

Fox poll proved you wrong...or is Fox spreading misinformation?

I could care less what FOX polls or any other polls say tbh. Everyone in my community in Texas owns a gun, every single one, we live in the countryside and you have to be an idiot if you don't have one, especially on a farm.

OK, you're in the 13% minority...

That's fine.

OK, you're in the 19% minority....

That's fine.

20% miniorty....

It's not 1% I would be shocked, so that's fine

Good...you're for gun control...

Depends, depends, case by case.

Good....you're for gun control...

Depends, depends, case by case.

Neo-Nazi MAGA white supremacists, Proud Bois, Three-Percenters...

Some, but you have more gang bangers and more crimes in minority communities, more illegal guns, rap videos are not helping these communities.

Thanks for agreeing with me...

I didn't, but people can feel how they want, just watch MTV and you see a lot of insecure people waving guns and telling the police to blank themselves.

A gun has a single use. To kill.

Guns in the wild west were used as hammers. Many pictures on google show adverts from the mid 1850s America that advertise colts as weapons and hammers

A hammer, knife, or table leg are not designed to kil

Many knives are design to kill. That's obvious Wally.

Every year more than one million guns will end up as illegal weapons. There is a growing problem with "ghost guns" when a person without any verification, can buy gun parts and within one hour assemble a working gun from them. The parts are sold by the gun manufacturers.

People do not secure their weapons.

"Every day in the U.S., roughly 1 gun is stolen every 90 seconds. That amounts to around 380,000 stolen guns every year, many of which are later used to commit violent crimes."

"Where are most guns stolen?

Cars parked at residences (driveways, outside homes, etc.) are the most common source of stolen guns, demonstrating the importance of securely storing guns at all times and locations."

All politicians of both parties are guilty of not introducing sensible gun laws. There can be no more excuses. The US has the highest rate of gun homicides of all the G7 countries. More than 400 million guns for 320 million people. Only 47% of households own a gun.
