    Otero County Commission chairman Ronny Rardin is proposing changes to the county's personnel policy that would allow county employees to open carry a weapon to work.

    The commission conducted a public hearing about possible amendments during its regular meeting Thursday night, and discussion focused on the part of the policy that says employees cannot bring firearms to work.
    Rardin said the policy currently states employees can be fired if they're found to have a gun in their car if it's parked on county property, which he said is illegal search and seizure and unconstitutional.

    Glad to see this. It may be a reaction to a case down there where a citizen won a harassment settlement and a large sum of cash for OCing in a movie theatre. The NM Constitution also states that counties or municipalities cannot make any laws that infringe on the right to carry guaranteed by the US and New Mexico's Constitutions.
