A federal judge cleared the way Wednesday for enforcement of a public health order that suspends the right to carry guns at public parks and playgrounds in New Mexico’s largest metro area.

The order from U.S. District Judge David Urias rejects a request from gun rights advocates to block temporary firearms restrictions as legal challenges move forward.

It marks a victory for Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham and her advocacy for temporary gun restrictions in response to recent shootings around the state that left children dead.

I just can’t get over the fact that the t-shirts in the article are horribly designed.

Those shirts assume cops are the only reason to call 911

"grandma is having a heart attack! Call 911!" "We don't have time! Get me a 9mm."

"The Christmas tree is on fire. Call the fire department!" "No time! Get me my gun!"

You need a shotgun with bird shot to put out a natural or electrical fire and a deer slug for a grease fire.

The people wearing those shirts certainly aren’t faster than the average jogger.

This is the best summary I could come up with:


The order from U.S. District Judge David Urias rejects a request from gun rights advocates to block temporary firearms restrictions as legal challenges move forward.

Michelle Lujan Grisham and her advocacy for temporary gun restrictions in response to recent shootings around the state that left children dead.

The standoff is one of many in the wake of a U.S. Supreme Court decision last year expanding gun rights, as leaders in politically liberal-leaning states explore new avenues for restrictions.

In New Mexico, the restrictions have ignited a furor of public protests, prompted Republican calls for the governor’s impeachment and widened divisions among top Democratic officials.

Lujan Grisham, a Democrat, continued to argue this week that some sensitive public spaces should be off limits for open or concealed carry of firearms.

Urias also said it appears “plausible, although not certain” that the governor may “demonstrate a national historical tradition of firearm restrictions at public parks within cities.”


The original article contains 559 words, the summary contains 155 words. Saved 72%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!

testing sewers is most definitely a thing. not just for drugs but also checking spread of viruses and such.
