    | Senate Bill 5, the Extreme Risk Firearm Protection Order Act, was passed by a margin of two votes on the New Mexico Senate floor Friday afternoon.
 
 The vote began at 3:20 p.m. After a roll call vote, the bill passed 22-20, with two abstentions.
 
 Six amendments to the bill, including the correction of two typos, were adopted, leading Sen. Mark Moores (R-21) to comment in the debate that the bill was rushed.
 
 Red flag laws were passed in 17 other states and the District of Columbia.

    | So, they essentially passed a rule of force, (Not a legitimate law) that deprives citizens of the Republic, their right to due process.....Disgraceful, if not down right criminal. |

                      | Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States.  — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |  |  |
