Assault Weapon Ban

There but for the grace of God goes Colorado

I was corresponding with someone recently and they mentioned something interesting. This person is a lawyer and said they were in a 10th circuit (Federal) courtroom recently and overheard an appellate case out of New Mexico about gun control.

I am not sure if you remember, but New Mexico’s governor made quite a splash a while back by declaring a public health emergency related to guns, trying essentially to use that to take away the Second Amendment rights of the citizens of that state.

Those orders, and later iterations of same, have been working their way through the courts ever since. The first link below is to that case if you’re curious.

This person asked a neighbor why it was that the solicitor general for New Mexico had an Australian accent. They were told that the lawyer didn’t work for New Mexico, the lawyer worked for Everytown. Everytown the gun control group (see the second link below).
