Emergency orders were issued by New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham suspending the right to carry firearms in public in and around Albuquerque.
in public in and around Albuquerque are getting pushback from gun rights groups and some law enforcement officials and elected leaders.outside a minor league baseball park last week, Grisham issued a 30-day ban on open and concealed carrying of firearms in her state's largest city and surrounding areas in Bernalillo County.
Lujan Grisham said the temporary gun ban would be enforced by the state police and violators would be subject to a fine of up to $5,000. "This is an abhorrent attempt to impose a radical, progressive agenda on an unwilling populous," Lord said in a joint statement with Block, "Rather than addressing crime at its core, Governor Grisham is restricting the rights of law-abiding gun owners."
"Our officers at APD will continue to focus on the enforcement of criminal laws and arresting the criminals who are driving violent crime in the city," Medina said. "We have arrested over 200 murder suspects in the last two years and field officers are making dozens of felony arrests every day. Everyone is stepping up to keep Albuquerque residents safe from the influx of guns and illegal drugs.
Lujan Grisham said she felt the urgent need to act following three fatal shootings involving children since late July and two mass shootings in the state in May.
