There’s A New Sheriff in Town…

…and we’ve got his back.

There is no way I can do this piece justice, but I hope you’ll join me in forwarding it to your local Sheriff! (HT: Oath keepers)

Local Sheriffs Are Last Defense, Former Lawman Says
By Vince Devlin of the Missoulian

…He’d sworn, he discovered, to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States. And he’d sworn that he’d do so against enemies both foreign and domestic.

We know who America’s foreign enemies are, Mack told the crowd.

The domestic enemy he fights today is a federal government he says is bent on taking away people’s rights and freedoms.

And who can fight the massive federal government?

Your local sheriff, he said.

Mack – a former two-term sheriff in Graham County, Ariz., who along with former Ravalli County Sheriff Jay Printz, successfully sued the federal government when the Clinton administration demanded county sheriffs enforce provisions of the Brady Bill gun control law – said his movement seeks to target 1,000 sheriff races across the U.S. in 2010.

“We can have our country back,” Mack said, “but if you think the answer is in Washington, D.C., I’ve got beachfront in Oklahoma for you.”

…While many of Mack’s backers are gun owners who believe the country is taking away their Second Amendment rights, Mack said true “constitutional” sheriffs will protect the rights and freedoms of all Americans on any front.

“What would a constitutional sheriff have done in 1959?” Mack asked the crowd.

When the call came in to the Montgomery County, Ala., sheriff’s office that a black woman was refusing to move to the back of the bus – as required by law – the sheriff would have arrived on the scene and talked to Rosa Parks.

“Ma’am, what’s the problem,” a constitutional sheriff would have asked her, Mack said. Told she had taken an empty seat and just wanted to be left alone, the constitutional sheriff would have sat down next to her, ridden with her to her stop – and, once off, for good measure taken her into a whites-only restaurant so she could buy sandwiches for her and her husband.

He’d have then escorted her home, Mack said – asked if her husband was armed and could defend his family if anyone upset by what had happened came around and threatened them – and ordered extra patrols of the house.

“Remember, segregation wasn’t a tradition, it was the law of the land,” Mack said. “Rosa Parks taught us what you do with stupid laws.”

Yep…and we have literally thousands more to eliminate.

By the way, that “Brady Bill gun control” issue was not only supported by useful idiot Mike DeWine - who is running for Ohio’s Attorney General this year – but it earned him their endorsement.
