The ordinance prohibiting carry on city property from our perception does violate the State Constitution. The authors of this ordinance use”reasonable” as their justification for the prohibition. It restricts permit holders and licensed security officers. So what is the purpose of these licenses if you cant do what your licensed to do? More gun Free Zones from criminal preditation.

We already have a law “Negligent Use of a Deadly Weapon”, and several laws dealing with endangering children. Enough to set a workable standard. Are these laws enforced? If they were, would they get the results that are touted in the premeble of the ordinances.

New Mexico has becoame a “catch and release state” with no use of the law as it should be. Until our leaders gain the intelligence to handle the large macro economic problems of poverty and crime in this state laws like thse will have little positive effect.
