For 16 1/2 years I have been reporting on news from a Biblical perspective. 9 here at FGGAM, before that I served at KKIM Christian Radio in Albuquerque. I have written a ton of stories on crime here in New Mexico. It gets hard. I can’t even imagine how the Police here in Albuquerque feel today and all Law Enforcement in New Mexico and America with the shootings of APD Officers yesterday, who lay in the hospital. Why would anyone want to be a Police Officer in Albuquerque? They have to carry in their shirt pocket a list of misdemeanors they can’t arrest people for!!!! They arrest thugs and the thugs get released so many times by the courts or they get very little jail time. It’s all messed up here in New Mexico. There is not much justice for victims and Police. The scales of ‘justice’ favor the thugs. New Mexico is something else, it keeps doing the same stupid things expecting different results. This is a heart issue. It is a Jesus issue. Can’t you see? Very few do! This state has a growing number of people controlled by Satan. My daddy taught me to be responsible. As a Pastor it is my duty to my Lord to carry out The Great Commission. I am to reach the lost, to build bridges of love and trust, to help people come to know Jesus. This situation in New Mexico is all across the world as it sinks into hell. Look what has happened in Afghanistan!!! The United States of America left babies, women and men to be killed by the Taliban. Satanic. Should not surprise me, because we kill God’s babies through abortion here in America. You see, we are no longer a Christian nation, we are a minority. We are in deep trouble! I smell hell from here. It’s all a heart issue, hearts for Jesus. In the meantime I will carry out The Great Commission, much of the Church has forgotten about it, by the way, it is a command from our Lord, not a suggestion. Don’t get lazy and say, “I just can’t wait for Jesus to comeback.” The Lord has you here for this time! You are to carry out The Great Commission! Get busy for JESUS! Be a soul saver! MUST READ FOR ALL! 10 THINGS EVANGELISM IS AND ISN’T
Christians must take responsibility for all hell breaking loose in America. Bring down the walls of denominations, become one Body for Jesus! Bring down the walls of Churches, no more self-serving Kingdom’s! Be like Jesus, minister to all people. Please stop preaching to the choir so much as the world burns down.
Now here in New Mexico the GOP and Dem’s will have a big fight on what to do. Remember this, before Governor Lujan Grisham the GOP had Martinez in office for 8 years and nothing changed, and she was a former DA! Martinez left the tax payers holding the bag when she left office in disgrace. So the GOP and Dem’s have had their time to change things here, but it is all a political mess. No matter who has been in the governor’s seat, New Mexico continues to fail. JESUS is the answer not politics. Vet your candidates with God’s Word, know who their Pastor is! New Mexicans keeps voting for anti-life candidates, making the same stupid, ungodly decisions. JESUS IS NEEDED!!!! NOT MORE STINKING POLITICS!!!!
We are sure leaving our children with a very horrific situation.
Hey, now the state has legalized pot, home delivery of booze…..what a kick in the pants to every Law Enforcement Officer!!!!…that sure will improve New Mexico for JESUS! WHY NEW MEXICO?????????? The road to hell for sure…..More and more people are fed up with the GOP and Dem’s. Independents are growing in numbers.
More and more Doctors, nurses and Law Enforcement Officers are quitting, retiring or leaving the state. More here
Police Officers’ Association demands change following shooting that left 4 officers injured
FROM YESTERDAY:
Albuquerque, NM – Longtime Albuquerque State Representative, Bill Rehm, today issued the following statement regarding the ongoing crime crisis in Albuquerque and the morning shooting involving four Albuquerque Police Department officers:
“Here we are, eight months into 2021, and our community is still being rocked by almost daily senseless tragedies with Albuquerque setting a new murder record,” said Albuquerque Representative Bill Rehm (R). “The people of this city need to make their voices heard—‘enough is enough.’ We do not need social media posts or meetings about crime- we need real leadership and support for our criminal justice system that finally holds criminals accountable for their actions. People are tired of hearing the political rhetoric and want to live in a safe community, not one where criminals are released daily to commit more crimes. This ‘catch and release’ bail system must be changed. Criminals must have a perception there is a penalty for their actions. I am heartbroken to learn about today’s shooting that involved four officers, and I pray for their recovery and hope that they return safely to their families.”
Rep. Rehm has served in the New Mexico Legislature since 2006, and retired from the Bernalillo County Sherriff’s Department as a Captain in 2000.
UPDATED: First report was two officers shot. We are now told three officers were shot. Please be in constant prayer Team Jesus for the recovery of all four officers. Our heart aches for our Police Officers in Crime ravaged Albuquerque. They put their lives on the live for us everyday. Albuquerque has gone to hell. So many are blinded by Satan. The Church must step up and carry out THE GREAT COMMISSION! We must reach the lost that are doing these Satanic acts.

FGGAM received this News release late yesterday from the New Mexico GOP House:
House GOP calls for special session to address public emergency of violent crime
Santa Fe, NM – The House Republican Leadership team today called on the Governor to convene an immediate Special Session of the New Mexico Legislature to address the escalating and already out of control crime problems plaguing Albuquerque and the rest of the state. Republican leadership told the Governor that the runaway crime problem has become a public emergency as the crime rate continues to rapidly increase and has become progressively worse day by day.
“We clearly have a unique opportunity to finally take the necessary steps to stop the growing number of violent and non-violent crimes across our state, and we stand ready to go to work immediately to get the job done,” wrote House Republican Leader Jim Townsend (Artesia), House Republican Whip Rod Montoya (Farmington), and House Republican Caucus Chair Rebecca Dow (T or C).
The Lujan Grisham administration and majority House Democrats have focused their efforts to pass hyper-partisan progressive policies and have taken no action to strengthen criminal penalties or make it easier to keep criminals off of our streets. For example, during the 2020 and 2021 regular sessions of the Legislature, progressive Democrats rejected some 11 legislative proposals sponsored by House Republicans that would have ended the failed policy of “catch and release” law enforcement and ensured tough mandatory sentencing to guarantee that violent criminals will face serious consequences for their actions. Yet, the House majority was more than willing to pass legislation that would give felons the right to vote and strongly consider legislation that would have imposed the strongest anti-police “use of force’ standards in the nation. These progressive ideas have led many New Mexicans to believe the Democrat majority feels it is more important to protect and coddle criminals than it is to support law enforcement and stop the crime that is causing fear among New Mexico’s families.
In the letter to Lujan Grisham, House Republican leadership pushed for immediate and decisive action rather than delaying any anti-crime legislation for five months until January 2022 when the next regular legislative session is scheduled to meet. The letter also made it clear that House Republicans were willing to work with the governor in order to show all New Mexicans that criminals will be held accountable for harming our citizens and threatening our safety.
Below is a list of the 11 bills sponsored by House Republicans over the past two legislative sessions:
2021 Session
HB 58 Additional Violent Felonies
HB 59 Habitual Felony Offender Consideration
HB 62 Prosecution Time Limit for Certain Felonies
HB 80 Pretrial Detention Rebuttable Presumption
HB 81 Unlawful Weapons While Trafficking
2020 Session
HB 32 Pretrial Bond Hearing
HB 33 3 Strikes Equal Life Sentence
HB 35 Enhanced Penalty for Firearm Used in Crime
HB 36 No Statute of limitation on 2nd Degree Murder
HB 114 Firearms and Controlled Substance Penalty
HB 203 Pretrial Release Hearing Changes

New Mexico Governor Wants $100 Mil for 1,000 More Law Enforcement Officers
Okay…..how about raises and better equipment for our present officers? We need more detectives. We need the best technology to help detectives solve crimes. HUGE SHORTAGE OF DETECTIVES! You cannot just throw money at crime. That has been tried, year after year. This should not be made a campaign issue. We are talking about the safety of all. Take care of our present officers first. Have a plan. Law Enforcement Officers are retiring or quitting at record numbers across the nation. All of a sudden the talk of ‘defund the police’ is catching up with those that were calling for such a very stupid thing! With that talk and COVID it has been a horrible time in Law Enforcement. Many Americans should be ashamed of themselves how they have treated our heroes in uniform.
I have always stated crime is a heart issue, a heart for Jesus issue. You could add 200 officers in Albuquerque right now and there would not be much change or any change at all in the crime rate. Satan is having his way with so many everyday in America. I would strongly suggest to hire more Police Chaplains to help our officers cope with all this wicked crime, to give them more support and also to minister to the victims and to those who commit such evil.
There is much work to be done on the New Mexico Court system also!!! IT NEEDS REFORM!!! FAILURE BIG TIME!
