NAPOLITANO: Governor of New Mexico Became a Tyrant With Gun-Ban Try
Can a judge declare a health emergency based on gun violence, and take away your rights to bear arms?
Gerald Celente and Judge Andrew Napolitano held their “Celente and the Judge” YouTube broadcast on Wednesday and one of their topics was the recent executive orders signed by New Mexico’s Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham to suspend open and concealed carrying in the state.
Politico reported that U.S. District Judge David H. Urias issued a temporary strike of the ban. The report noted that it is not a ruling on the merits, but Urias told a lawyer for the governor that he thinks she has a “hard road here to get up.”
NAPOLITANO: She thinks by signing an executive decree – a piece of paper – she can take away our natural rights that are guaranteed by the Second Amendment – that the Supreme Court reinforced a year and a half ago, that are guaranteed by federal law, that is guaranteed by New Mexico’s Constitution – simply by declaring an emergency.
He noted that the decree prohibits individuals who have the legal right to carry guns in Albuquerque. She thinks that by categorizing an uptick in crime as a health emergency she gets the idea that she can strip the people of the city of their rights.
