Guns

- (2/23/23) Editorial: The Gun Toter - He's a menace to any community and almost
invariably a coward. There is a law against carrying a six shooter in New
Mexico, but in this particular section of the state no attention is paid to it.
Quite a few of our "brave" young Americans in this locality seem to be of the
opinion that they are real men when they attend local dances with a six shooter
in one hip pocket and a bottle of "nubbin juice" in the other. About the best
and quickest way of changing their opinions would be the prompt application of
as heavy a fine as the law allows on each and every gun toter brought before the
courts and our city officials should be charged to round up the offenders,
regardless of rank or station.
