Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham (D) signed legislation Friday to criminalize private gun sales but 25 of New Mexico’s 33 counties have made clear they have no intention of enforcing it.

The Santa Fe New Mexican reports that 25 counties have declared “Second Amendment Sanctuary” status as a way of affirming that their county governments stand behind a sheriff’s decision to not enforce the gun control.

On March 2, Breitbart News reported that 21 of New Mexico’s 33 counties had declared themselves “Second Amendment Sanctuaries.

Those 21 counties:

    Valencia County
    Sandoval County
    Eddy County
    Chaves County
    Otero County
    Lincoln County
    Quay County
    Union County
    Socorro County
    San Juan County
    Catron County
    Curry County
    Hidalgo County
    Sierra County
    Grant County
    Torrance County
    Rio Arriba County
    De Baca County
    Roosevelt County
    Harding County
    Luna County

Sounds like a civil insurrection within the state.
Going to be interesting to see what the outcome is.

Yes it is interesting. A little 'civil disobedience' coming from our side for a change.

Fun to watch how the left reacts.

Fun, indeed.  It will also be interesting to see if this catches on.
