Episode 781 – Do You Want Safety or Freedom?

Joe Biden is in Alaska to commemorate the 22nd anniversary of 9/11 after a disaster of a trip to India and Vietnam.

And the governor from New Mexico gives everyone a reason to vote for a Republican.

Dumbass of the Day

A National Embarrassment

She’s a Tyrant

This is coming to all of us if we do not stand up and stop it.

According to the Daily Wire:

New Mexico Democrat Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham banned people from being able to carry guns in Albuquerque and the surrounding county for at least the next 30 days after a kid was killed during a road rage incident.

Grisham signed an executive order on Thursday declaring that gun violence was a public health emergency in the Democrat-controlled state.

On Friday, Grisham unilaterally suspended open and concealed carry laws in Albuquerque and the surrounding area. She said that she could further lengthen or renew her order — which was immediately slammed by many as being unconstitutional.

But that is not all. Her reasons are incredible. Here is her entire comment about the issue while she is being pressed hard on the subject:

This is the problem with emergency legislation. The people that make them think they have no limits, they can implement them for anything they conflate into an emergency (that’s what they are doing with climate change) and they never give back their power (we saw this with the China virus). By the way, there is nothing in the Constitution about emergency legislation.

Laws aren’t absolute? What’s the point of having them is we can just change them anytime we want? Finally, does that mean we can all change the laws we don’t like or is it just the people in charge? That doesn’t seem fair.

Of course this is all BS. Laws are absolute, that’s why there is a process to change laws. Slavery, voting rights for blacks and women and Jim Crow laws were all considered terrible. But we couldn’t just decide they no longer applied. They had to change those laws.

The Second Amendment is also very clear: A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed. In other words, the law states that politicians do not have the right to infringe on our right. PERIOD!

Safety is always an issue with freedom. We have to give up our guns to be safe. This is a straw man argument. There is no way for the government to guarantee out safety because safety cannot be guaranteed for anything. Who’s to say all those people she listed wouldn’t be alive if a good person didn’t have a gun and was able to use it against the bad guy with a gun?

What is the government going to do anyway? Most of the cases she mentioned were already susceptible to the current gun laws. A fourteen year old is not allowed to have a gun. He stole it. A crime was already committed. Felons are not allowed to have guns. They get them anyway. The crime has already been committed. Where was the government then when those crimes were committed?

It’s a cliché but it does apply. If it is criminal to have a gun, only criminals will have guns. And they will get them. Let us not forget, this is a broad who is for keeping criminals out of jail!

The backlash has been immense. Gun rights groups are suing. Citizens are protesting. Law enforcement is saying they will not enforce the law because it violates the Constitution. Some are calling for her to be impeached, kicked out of office and even arrested. Seem extreme? I don’t think so.

This dumb broad admitted she lied when she took her oath. It shouldn’t be a surprise coming from an atheist making an oath to God and country. But this is illegal because it is a form a perjury. There should be legal action taken.

That’s the last reason she should be kicked out of office. If she’s too stupid not to make a statement like this on television, she’s too stupid to be governor.
