New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham suspended the right to open carry guns on public property in certain counties in attempt to curb a surge of gun violence in her state. Cenk Uygur and Ana Kasparian discuss on The Young Turks.

"A federal judge on Wednesday temporarily blocked a ban on carrying guns in New Mexico's largest city after the order by Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham threw the state into the center of the U.S. gun-rights debate.

U.S. District Court Judge David Urias said the governor's 30-day suspension of concealed and open firearm carry rights in Albuquerque and its surrounding county went against a landmark U.S. Supreme Court ruling that people had a right to carry a gun outside their homes for self defense."
