I have recently read a report indicating
the threat to civil liberties as practiced and managed by the sheriff of Marin
County.
It is clear that equal protection
under the law is a concept that is either unfamiliar to your sheriff or blatantly
ignored as a duty of that office.
Information suggests that the California
Penal Code, Section 12050-12054 relating to concealed carry of handguns is being
administered unfairly and periodically to the general public. Information collected
and presented by your office under the State version of the Freedom of Information
Act clearly shows a propensity to grant CCW permits to County employees over
average citizens by a margin of 3 to 1. This is clearly a violation of the law
and must be corrected at the earliest opportunity.
It is not surprising however that
Marin County is at least in the same general state of deniability of citizens
rights as many other counties in our state. Little wonder many in the media
like to refer to us as the LEFT COAST and even sadder as the Republik of Kalifornia.
It is my belief that your office
should be investigated by a Federal Grand Jury to determine the true extent
of these injustices. Clearly it has been determined our forefathers determined
a person to have a right to life. When that right is clearly put in danger through
a denial of a person to carry a legal and effective means to protect their life,
citizens have a duty to protest to protect those constitutionally guaranteed
rights. The Constitutional limits on the authority of government must be respected
and shall not be open to arbitrary interpretation by your sheriff or any other
government employee or entity. You seem to making a mockery of the very statutes
you have sworn to uphold and to your oath of office.
Strange how we allow weapons to
be carried by guards to protect somebody's money but not to protect their own
life -- not to be carried except when on duty. I find this to be worse than
ludicrous, it is an insult to the people of our state.
Hoping the courts will help you
clean up your act.
