Check Out the VIDEO!
The Hon.SUSANA MARTINEZ, Governor of the state of NEW MEXICO:
As I went to bed last night, I caught Lawrence O'Donnell's Last Word show on television. He showed the nation, and the world, footage of New Mexico's "finest"; brutalising' and firing live rounds, at an un-armed black woman and her five children; near Taos. http://www.msnbc.com/the-last-word/watch/cop-shoots-at-car-full-of-children-65054275613 This footage is every-bit as damaging to the image of New Mexico as the Rodney King tapes were to the City of Los Angeles. The woman, and her 14-year-old son were arrested on minor, trumped-up, charges.
As a long-time citizen and supporter of New Mexico, and your recent Economic Development efforts, I am as sickened and enraged as anyone who sees this video could be! I demand that you personally take charge of, and thoroughly investigate this event; making sure that No One in the line, or other position of responsibility escapes full, public, and aggressive punishment!
I am a retired, service disabled, veteran who served this nation, in the state of New Mexico, for several decades. I have worked with many dedicated New Mexico citizens in support of issues vital to the state since my arrival in 1967. I am a long-term supporter of New Mexico TOWN HALL, and have recommended that process to officials in other states.
This incident flies in the face of everything hundreds of dedicated citizens of this state have worked arduously to create and improve. When I arrived in 1967, then Governor Cargo, was engaged in anti-Tijerina http://southwestcrossroads.org/record.php?num=739. I'm sure you don't want to return this state to those days of cross-cultural tensions. We need for you to reassure the citizens of our state, the nation, and all those around the world who saw, or will see this video that this does NOT represent our beautiful, fair-minded Land of Enchantment. We don't need this kind of Tea Party Poison, here, that is seeping into other states in our nation.
On this day of celebration of the 150th Anniversary of the Gettysburg Address, this is your opportunity to insure that we continue to work toward "A More-Prefect UNION".
We Must Stay Vigilant!
