The bill was not on the published committee agenda and was brought up for a vote at 11:30 p.m. last night. These games are always played at the end of the session.

The ABQ Journal is running an add at the top of their webpage calling on the public to contact their state senators to support the bill. [A contact list is given in the link below]. The ad is sponsored by a group called "Mayors Against Illegal Guns Action Fund." I have already contacted my senator who voted against it in committee.

Good. This will make the gun shows in Texas even more prosperous. But you’d better come early because most are sold out of the good stuff very quickly.

will the Gov sign this?

How is it that AZ is red, TX to the east is red and CO was red until the CA liberals moved to denver and boulder or kids thought it would be cool to be left wing and get their drugs?

What a shame.

I never have felt more free than I did the first time I bought a gun from a private seller at a gun show and discovered I didn’t have to fill out Form 4473. Not that I wouldn’t have passed the check, it’s just that it’s none of the government’s business.

I’ve already told Governor Susana that I had left the state in no small part because she decided to violate the Federal Constitution in cooperating with the act of Abomination.

But if I recall my New Mexico State Constitution Article II, section 6 clearly states:

“Right to Bear Arms
No law shall abridge the right of the citizen to keep and bear arms for security and defense, for lawful hunting and recreational use and for other lawful purposes, but nothing herein shall be held to permit the carrying of concealed weapons. No municipality or county shall regulate, in any way, an incident of the right to keep and bear arms. (As amended November 2, 1971 and November 2, 1986.)”

This of course in New Mexico like in Washington is nearly a dead letter as even the public university of New Mexico openly ignores it.

When is the last time a mass shooting involved a gun bought at a gun show, if ever?

Its a solution without a problem.
