this was the story according to AP:
The shooting tonight was a tragic, outrageous and unacceptable act of violence and it has no place in our city, Mayor Tim Keller said in a statement. Our diverse community will not be deterred by acts meant to divide or silence us. Our hearts go out the victim, his family and witnesses whose lives were needlessly threatened tonight. This sculpture has now become an urgent matter of public safety.
Democratic Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham issued a statement directed at the armed people, saying they were there to menace protesters. She said there is no room in New Mexico for any sort of escalation of what she called reckless, violent rhetoric.
The instigators this evening will be rooted out, they will be investigated, and they will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law, she said.
since these punk pols & Soros thug groups are working together can’t AG Barr locate some conspiracy charges.
Why do the rest of us have to watch as our cultural artifacts are stripped away with no resistance from these punks?
Obviously the guy shot the wrong instigators.
Governor they have every right to be there. If you wont do your job you invite the law of the jungle and many of us refuse to take a beat down by your thugs. This is about to get real ugly.
