    If you live in Albuquerque, fire up your computer and contact your City Council person. Tomorrow afternoon at 3 PM they will be dealing with two items that bear on our 2A rights.

    Ordinance O-19-82 will mandate secure storage of firearms.

    Ordinance O-19-83 seeks to create a city ordinance out of Keller’ s questionable order banning firearms on city owned or leased properties.

    This ordinance would violate the state Constitution, Article II, Section 6 which states “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.”*

    A recent attempt to pass a non-binding resolution to repeal this seciton of the state Constitution failed in the council 5-4. Remind youor councilperson about that failure and that this ordinance is unconstitutional in this state.

    E-mail you councillor today and call them tomorrow to let them know you oppose these ordinances.

    More information can be found on the city website at www.cabq.gov.

    If you live in New Mexico or have strong ties here, may I suggest asking to become a member of the Gun Owners of New Mexico FB page if you are not already a member.

    And, if you want to help us fight for our 2A rights, consider joining the New Mexico Shooting Sports Association (www.nmssa.org). For 85 years, this organization has worked to further the shooting sports and preserve our right here in NM. (Transparency – I am the Vice President of NMSSA).

Messing About with Article II, Section 6

A few weeks ago, Albuquerque City Councilor Diane Gibson has gotten herself some no-charge campaign advertising, courtesy of the lamestream snoozemedia [1], on account of her calling for a State-level Constitutional Amendment to change Article II, Section 6 of the Constitution of the State of New Mexico from its current text:

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.

— to something that gives municipal and county governments more leeway to enact victim disarmament statutes:

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.

Considering that the sorts of victim disarmament statutes desired by Gibson and her hoplophobe cronies only disarm those who need to own and carry weapons the most — the five-foot, hundred-pound woman who’s being stalked by her crazed six-foot, two-hundred-pound ex-boyfriend — and don’t actually disarm the criminal and terrorist types one bit, those of us who support and exercise the individual, civil, Constitutional, human right to own and carry weapons for “…. for security and defense, for lawful hunting and recreational use and for other lawful purposes ….” would prefer that IF Article II, Section 6 must be amended, that it should read like this afterwards:

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. No municipality or county shall regulate, in any way, an incident of the right to keep and bear arms.

The Lefty Fascists ‘Honor’ the Passing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Mostly, I don’t bother much with Twitter, as the “service” abounds with idiocy and not much else.

Still, that abumdance of inanity provides lots of ridicule-worthy material.

For example, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg passed away yesterday. As for the stances she took while on the Court, I probably disagreed with her more often than I agreed with her. Still, I don’t know that I could have lived in the District of Corruption for 27 years AND kept my opinions on the issues of the day to myself, except when permitted to speak up.

You might think that the lefty fascist types would celebrate her life and express sorrow about her passing, right?

WRONG ANSWER!

    I’m sure that the solar and wind power companies will more than make up for the shortfall in severance taxes that the Democrats need so much to fund their “free everything for everyone” legalized vote buying schemes welfare state programs.
