Controversial Gun Ban by Governor Sparks Public Safety Concerns and Constitutional Debate

The governor of New Mexico has issued an emergency order banning the public carrying of firearms, sparking conflict and concerns over public safety and constitutional rights. The order comes in response to recent incidents of gun violence, including the death of an 11-year-old boy. While some advocacy groups support the action, others argue that it could hinder public safety. Gun owners, including a couple who survived a life-threatening incident, express concerns about their ability to protect themselves. The governor defends the decision, citing the high number of gun-related deaths among children in the state.
