SUPPORT NRA-ILA Suit is Among Many filed in Fight Against Gun Store Closures During COVID-19 Pandemic Fairfax, Va. - The National Rifle Association (NRA) and other pro-Second Amendment organizations filed a lawsuit in New Mexico today challenging anti-gun Gov.

"Politicians imperil our families by declaring our fundamental right of self defense 'non-essential' while they free criminals," said Jason Ouimet, executive director, National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action.

The NRA filed the suit in U.S. Distict Court with the Second Amendment Foundation, the Firearms Policy Coalition, the Mountain States Legal Foundation, and the New Mexico Shooting Sports Association.

Grisham has exploited this crisis to continue her attack on the rights of law-abiding citizens. Other Democratic colleagues of hers, in states such as Colorado, have deemed gun stores and ranges "essential" and protected residents' right to purchase and own guns.

And who, pray tell, is this Armand, anyway? He is is based in Jamestown, New Mexico, and is a contributing writer and photographer for the Monster Island News blog.

I believe he found a New Mexico application of the phrase: "Malevolent Michelle," originally created as a bashing of Former First Lady Michelle Obama.
