Did you notice New Mexico was unhappy almost the entire fricking time?

Johnson was Governor of New Mexico, not Senator.

As you well know New Mexico is a Gold Open Carry State.

If you would like to look at states and their carry laws please see.

Ignore the pretty woman, it's an appeal to beauty and is deplorable, I think.

Presenting a handgun is the act of placing the handgun in your hands, and scanning for targets. "Present Arms!" Which is separate from brandishing, because at that point you are no longer brandishing (misdemeanor) you have intent, and that could be assault with a deadly weapon (felony). Brandishing is the act of having a handgun on your person that causes someone else to feel as though their life is in danger. This is commonly counteracted by the open carry law, which means you would need to present the handgun in a threatening manner. So in open carry states if you would place a handgun in your hand at any time that would be brandishing.

From one lawful carrier to another; It is always ill advised to openly carry a weapon in a metropolitan district simply because of the fuss that can be caused. In short; don't

I am not a lawyer, my statements are opinion only.

So you know, booby-trapping your property with the intention to cause harm to those who disturb it is illegal. Just thought you should know that, since you're pasting your face on a crime and giggling while uploading it to the internet.

And landmines in New Mexico... are you kidding me? Not only is that patently illegal it is a violation of the Geneva convention...

You actually DO have the right not to be maimed when stealing things/breaking and entering/tresspassing and the like. In some states you can be shot by the owner and that is fine since it is not a dumb trap, but a (potentially dumb) person making a decision. There are many many court cases upholding this right all over the US. Google it.

If you're seeking out a parking spots in high crime areas, leaving the keys in the ignition, the doors unlocked (and possibly ajar), and then hiding nearby with a video camera and giggling, YES!

America, we take our right to our lives for granted so much that we punish people for doing what they want to their property to protect those that lie cheat and steal.

Actually, it's more like "In America, we take our rights for granted so much that we think that people who commit crimes don't have any."
Read my qualifications again, and think about why there's a big difference between that and "doing what they want to protect their property."
Incidentally, do you think it's okay to put landmines in your backyard because you don't like the neighbor's kids taking shortcuts across your lawn (i.e. trespassing)?


About the landmines, people do that in New Mexico and people, as a consequence, don't trespass. You don't have the right not to be maimed when taking something that isn't yours. That right results in the crazy ass law suits of people stealing your stuff and suing you for hurting themselves. Where as I wouldn't put mines in my backyard to keep people off, people shoot trespassers in my state and are protected by law to do so.

This isn't even a case of people protecting their property however. None of these measures were being used in a way to prevent the bike from being stolen. They were done to get some luls off of anyone who rode the bike. Being that the bike wasn't theirs, they took the risk riding it, and as such inherit all the culpability of that action. It is different than, say, throwing a bunch of marbles at a crosswalk and watching people fall over. When he took the bike, he inherited the risk of not knowing any of the ways in which that bike worked, or in this case, was deficient. The fact that it was purposefully made defective is moot.

This doesn't carry over to other situations because other situations require an initial point of contract. Like if you buy a car, turns out to be a lemon you can sometimes sue because of the initial point of contact where you were buying "A" and got "B" instead. This person is taking "B" assuming it is "A" and getting pie in his face as a result. There was no fraud as there was no initial point of contract. The thief could of easily of just walked the bike away instead of riding it if he knew this bike wasn't for riding.

I, for one, am impressed and grateful that the dregs of Victorian society could somehow slay the deadly koala and usurp the mighty kangaroo long enough to stay drunk and procreate all at the same time!

New Mexico needs more Aussies!

Apparently Sky Vassar was a young woman in New Mexico who died from complications due to appendicitis surgery.

Took me a while to find that info, and it is not from a very reliable source, but it bugs me not knowing the details of a situation like this...

I'm not sure if these kids are from New Mexico or just don't understand how plows operate, but they don't seem to be the brightest bunch of future leaders. I'm just saying from living in MN/ND I understand that plowing snow (by hand or truck) works best with a little momentum...so get out of the damn way. And to throw snowballs/chunks? That's crap. The driver has a job to do so that people can actually drive down the street. I am surprised the driver went down the street with so many kids so close though.

Cheeks.

It's all you'll ever really need to know about New Mexico.

I guess the cops had nothing better to do.

Stuff like this is so asinine that it will prove to be a national embarrassment for years to come.

I thought that a place like Washington would be a lot more hip regarding the herb, but I guess I'm wrong.

New Mexico is so backwards that they tried to establish a single cannabis provider for the entire state; they ran out of herb, and now about 500 people are going without. Some people would laugh at that, but in New Mexico you basically have to be dying before they'll let you have access to the MM program.

Really pathetic.

(and I can't wait for the nitwit to come along and write that “anybody can get weed any time they want in America, if they really want it.” God forbid I go a single day without reading some form of rightwing idiocy)

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag. (show it anyway)

Make sure you scramble the fighter jets out of Texas and roll the tanks and other equipment into New Mexico, before they secede - and then - don't let the door hit you where the good lord split you Tejas. Thanks for all the TexMex and Austin City Limits.

God forbid that a nation should try and provide health care for its people - by all means - GTFO of the country, if that offends.
