New Mexico Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham has issued an emergency public health order temporarily suspending the right to carry firearms in public across Albuquerque and surrounding Bernalillo County.
God, do Americans live in such a state of paranoia they always think something like that might happen whenever they leave the house so need a gun? Seems sad.
Are you under the impression that America has a violent crime rate of 0 and carriers are just hullicinating the existence of criminals or dangerous animals?
If you’re cool with relying on chance that you’ll never need it, that’s fine I’m not advocating you carry or change your laws. But I prefer to have the right to carry the tools to defend myself even if I’ll likely never need them.
I mean, all countries have violent crimes, but I don’t leave the house assuming I’ll be a victim of one to the point I need to carry a lethal weapon. I can ubder stand say, women carrying pepper spray or the like to deter an attacker but killing them just seems like a step too far when you have no idea how they ended up at that point.
So you understand the concept and need for self defense. Pepper spray and tasers don’t always work. If your assailant is on mind altering substances, pain compliance tools like PS will be inaffective. Tasers won’t work (or are less likely to work) on winter clothing.
If you’re cool with your odds that’s fine, but I’m not willing to risk my life (or more importantly my partner’s life) when conceal carry is just as physical easy as PS.
