The NM constitution's language is not consistent with the belief that ""bear arm"" (or, at least, ""keep and bear arms"") only refers to warfare. Paraphrasing for clarity,

 for other lawful purposes,...""

More importantly, though, SMP's use of peaceful appears to be as a synonym for ""quiet"" as in ""quiet enjoyment.""   "
