Supporters of the 380 sheriffs in 15 states who so far have vowed to defy new state and federal gun control laws claim that legislation is starting to pop up around the nation to fire any state elected or appointed law enforcement official who doesn't obey federal orders.

The first effort emerged in Texas. Legislation proposed by Dallas Democratic Rep. Yvonne Davis would remove any sheriff or law enforcement officer who refuses to enforce state or federal laws.

What's more, it would remove any elected or appointed law enforcement officer for simply stating or signing any document stating that they will not obey federal orders.

A gun lobbyist told Secrets, "Beware because once something like this is introduced in one state, it will be followed very quickly in several other states."

Sheriffs take an oath to enforce the laws, not to do an end-run repeal of laws based on their own interpretation of the Constitution.

In an age of unconstitutional laws and lawless government the County Sheriff is the top Peace Officer within his jurisdiction. If the choice is between disobeying an unconstitutional law that violates the spirit of liberty enshrined in that document then his DUTY is clear. His duty is to the people for whose safety and peace he is responsible. If it comes to a choice between law and duty then duty is the higher calling.

Sheriff's don't work for the state, they work for the people in their respective counties, they can tell the state to go pound sand.

"Sheriffs take an oath to enforce the laws, not to do an end-run repeal of laws based on their own interpretation of the Constitution."

So what? Cops are like Mexicans --- they do whatever they please. The only reason there are 20-30 million Mexicans in this country is because federal, state and local law enforcement have refused to enforce the law.

From a Sheriff's Oath of Office: "I will support the Constitution of the United States and of this State."

Their job isn't to enforce whatever so-called "laws" are issued by rogue legislators that conflict with the Constitution of the United States and of their State.

What is an illegal order in your opinion, Shoonra? Is that just something WWII Germany's Military was expected to refuse?
