Welcome to a special bonus episode of Whiskey Lead and Steel! In this episode, Jeremy joins Ric and Lee as they dive into the recent decision by New Mexico Governor Michelle Grisham to suspend the right to carry firearms in Albuquerque.
The hosts dissect the key elements of Governor Grisham's press conference, where she justified this move as a response to a "public health crisis." They explore the implications of suspending Constitutional Rights and how it affects the community.
One noteworthy point of discussion is the County Sheriff's reluctance to "place his deputies in the position of enforcing" this suspension, highlighting the ethical and practical challenges involved. Additionally, they address the outright refusal of the Albuquerque Chief of Police to comply with what they see as an unlawful executive order.
A significant aspect of the conversation centers around the governor's readiness to deploy the State Police to enforce her directive in the affected area. The hosts debate the consequences and implications of such actions on the community.
Lastly, they shed light on the governor's claim that this suspension is a "cooling off period," but acknowledge that it primarily targets juvenile and young adult gun violence rather than addressing issues related to law-abiding concealed carry permit holders. Tune in for an in-depth discussion on this pressing issue!
