“She’s being sued, as I recall, individually, and in her official capacity in many of these lawsuits. Now, the state won’t pay for her defense because even the Democrat Attorney General realizes she way, way, way overstepped and won’t touch it with a 10 foot pole. I kind of want to see this open up the floodgates for more people to sue her as she is now on her own.”
and another point is that if she doesn’t somehow fight all these lawsuits, she could lose a bunch of them, which in the case of the Federal suits sets big time national precedents ... the left has overall been somewhat cautious in the kind of lawsuits they provoke for fear of precedents going against them ... this idiot lujan has opened the floodgates that could have long-term net benefit for gun rights ...
You make an excellent point. They usually try smaller, incremental things. Most commonly banning scary, looking rifles knowing full well it will take years for those lawsuits to wind their way through the courts. Personally, I think she was looking for some national attention, for some reason, as in that part of the country, no one ever thinks of New Mexico. Most people kind of forget it’s there. Personally, I think she was looking to throw her hat in the ring for some prospective hire office/position, may be in the future Democrat, White House, or maybe even a running mate. Who knows
