Sheriffs defend 2nd Amendment against Obama executive orders on gun control

With all of the bad light that law enforcment personell have been given as of late I thought it would be good to highlight the ones who are doing their jobs and standing up for the citizens they represent and work for. The 2nd amendment has become a very hot issue lately and sheriffs around the country are beginning to band together and stand up for the peoples rights. Many have already drawn a line in the sand and have boasted to not carry out or enforce any new gun control measures. I applaud these sheriffs for being true patriots and defenders of the Constitution. I hope to see the list grow every day. I urge any who read this to reach out the their local sheriffs and ask where they stand on this issue. We must stand together and we need our local law enforcment to stand with the people.

While the debate about gun control has intensified, County Sheriffs today across the country are beginning to take a stand against what they see is a veiled attempt to violate citizen’s gun rights under the 2nd Amendment of the U.S. Constitution by the Obama administration and some Democrats in Washington as well as in some states.

The Sheriff’s feel that background checks are okay however, when it comes to banning firearms or being ordered to confiscate weapons, they intend to defend the 2nd Amendment and their perspective State Constitutions.
