2nd Amendment Rally: Return To The Capitol

Now that the 2024 legislative session is about to begin in New Mexico, the announcement that there will be a Second Amendment rally at the Capitol building (the Roundhouse) on February 3 reminds me of the rally what was held there in 2020. It was just before the pandemic started.

I attended that one and it was a cold morning when it was held. There were several hundred participants at that rally in Santa Fe. I stayed the night before at an RV park in Santa Fe. If I go this time, I will likely stay there again. It's a 184 mile drive from home.

Now, like then, the lunatic Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham is trying to pass legislation that would infringe on New Mexicans' Second Amendment rights. Citizens of the state fought back and got "Second Amendment Sanctuary County" resolutions enacted back then.

Here's the flyer for the February 3 rally:

Depending upon the weather, I may attend the February 3 rally. I am already planning to go to Santa Fe for a Republican legislator reception and dinner on January 25.
