If you say "more guns" then that's what's already been done for decades, and it hasn't worked.

How about an ACTUAL proposal?

And if you don't have an actual proposal, then maybe you should STFU and sit down.

So let's hear it.... give me a serious proposal, or STFU and sit down.

Still crickets..

Lock up all democrats?

HAHAAHAH - it's funny cause it's true

I’m aware of what was decided in Heller. I don’t think taking away a right for 30 days is acceptable.

This is not the way to deal with gun violence. [/quote]

You haven't given a coherent answer as to what you think the RIGHT way to deal with gun violence is. And as someone siding with gun proponents it's on you to answer that question since you're part of the community producing gun violence. [/quote]

We know what they think the answer is - more Kyle Rittenhouses.

It's a temporary 30 day order. It will expire before it even gets through the courts.

A classroom full of children shot to pieces by a lunatic who had unfettered access to an AR-15
Gun nut response: "hey you need to be circumspect!"

We wouldn't be in this situation at all if YOU were circumspect.

Or the teachers were shooting back, such utopian failure of an idea.

Your freedom to swing your fists ends at someone else's nose.

Your freedoms end at the point where they put someone else at risk. When your freedoms end up taking away someone else's freedom (and especially, when your freedoms take away someone's greatest and most important freedom - their life) that is when controls need to come in.

The Governor took an oath to uphold the state constitution, not just the parts she likes but all of it. She is no longer doing so, and should be impeached.

If you don’t like the constitution then go through the process to change it. If the government is not going to arrest criminals, prosecute them, and if convicted lock them away, then citizens have no choice but to act to protect themselves.

The Sheriffs took oaths to protect and serve yet gun violence has surged. So they are no longer protecting and serving, and should be impeached.

ummmm the gov. took an oath to protect the constitution both national and local, broke both promises, maybe she should be removed. The good news is this was a political stunt by an irrelevant governor trying to impress on a national scale. Seems to be backfiring.

Gun nuts have to leave their guns at home for a month, and LOSE THEIR MINDS!!!!

Abortion is not a constitutional right. It’s not in the constitution.

Open carry is not in the constitution.

Correct!

However this troll of a governor could set a precedent when the next politician holds office..... maybe they will suspend the 19th, due to the health crises of their neglected children. That would be funny.

She is just following what SCOTUS does. They ignore well regulated militia.

At risk of stating what should be obvious, deliberately violating the Constitution is next-level illegal.

How soon can this person be removed from office?

Well? We're waiting, Republicans.... Where is your serious proposal to deal with violent gun crime?

To Republicans it's not a gun problem...it's a mental health problem. But just because a "good guy with a gun" has no mental health issues now is no guarantee that they'll have no mental health issues in the future (and they'll still own that gun).

Canada, the UK, Australia, Japan all have mental health issues just like us...but you know what they don't have?

What can you tell me about Switzerland?

See all conservatives agree it is right to ignore whatever part of the constitution you want.

The New Mexico constitution has no such clause, open carry is clearly defined as a right of all people under the New Mexico constitution which is included in her oath.

Simple solution to stop gun violence. Commit a crime with a gun you get 25 years added to the sentence. No sentence reduction, no parole option on those 25 years.

Just need prosecutors to bring the charge.

Yet those rights keep being taken away because of unfettered gun violence.

Why are those constitutional rights supposed to take a back seat to 2A?

How can that be justified? The Constitution makes no provision for 2A reigning supreme over all other clauses.

The Constitution does not guarantee the right to life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. That phrase is from the Declaration of Independence, where it is stated that the Creator has endowed all men with inalienable rights including those. The Constitution's Bill of Rights for all citizens that the federal government may not infringe is where 2A is found.

Preamble:

We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.

It's right in the mission statement of the Constitution...

Establish Justice: So how does unfettered gun ownership establish Justice? What about justice where it comes to the underground market place of guns fueling drug wars? What about justice where it comes to mentally ill people being able to buy guns and then shoot children in schools? The right wing is failing us there.

Insure domestic tranquility: Unfettered gun ownership has only caused gun violence to increase in America. Another fail.

Provide for the common defense: Again a fail, since we have less security and peace of mind as a society

Promote the general Welfare: How is it promoting the general welfare to have mentally ill people able to pass a background check to buy a gun? How is it promoting the general welfare to have tons of guns circulated in an underground market place so that felons can easily bypass the system and buy guns? Huge fail.

Secure the blessings of liberty: How do we have liberty when we have to worry about locking down our children in their schools? That is not liberty.

Ourselves and our posterity: Again, where is our posterity if our children (our posterity) are being gunned down in schools?

The current interpretation of 2A has trampled all over the core intent of the Constitution as laid out in the preamble. Something HAS to give. And Heller, NFA and other things should be showing us the way, that 2A *is not* absolute. It needs to give way.

I would add that there should be no plea bargains allowed and would extend it to whoever supplied the gun, to also get 25 years with no sentence reduction, no parole. But I bet you dollars to doughnuts that the NRA and GOP would fight that, tooth and nail. Because, they are insane.
