This is why all gun owners must be involved in politics, must vote, and must support national and state level pro-gun groups. They are in desperate need of money right, so please donate if you can. Most are preparing for the 2002 elections already.
What happend in NM could have easily happend in Michigan, as our CCW law also went to the MI Supreem Court. However, in the 2000 election the state level group MCRGO promoted several Supreem Court judges who won. Since the people we wanted on the court were they, they ruled as we hoped they would. I'm not sure if NM elects or appoints their Supreem Court Justices, but either way, it's politics that determine who is appointed.
Gun owners in NM need to get organized for the 2002 election and get the anti's out of office.
