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.

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.

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?

I haven't had much luck finding the official texts of sheriffs' oaths but I am pretty sure that it mentions enforcing the laws.

I don't need Barney Fife short-circuiting the Supreme Court with his own, untrained, interpretations of the Constitution.

Well based on that how could you trust any law enforcement officer? The majority of them have limited to no familiarity with the Constitution.

Untrained ignorant interpretations of the law is what our police do. That is why it is a tyrannical police state. They have no idea what the law is they profess to enforce. That means they are just thugs with guns no different than Somalian gangs spouting whatever they want to justify whatever they feel like ... because sometimes they just dont even give enough of a shit to justify anything. Like with the majority of police related suicides.

So Shoonra,

YOU DON'T NEED BARNEY FIFE SHORT-CIRCUTING THE SUPREME COURT WITH HIS OWN, UNTRAINED , IGNORANT. INACCURATE INTERPRETATIONS OF THE CONSTITUTION.

No, you don't need ignorant law enforcement.

You need a gun. It'll protect you much better. Or at lest get you out of the gene pool quicker , either way.

Their job is not to blindly enforce any and every brain fart masquerading as the law. Do you recall how those being tried in Nuremberg used "I was just following orders" as an excuse? Do you recall how well that defense worked for them?
