The Nelson County Sheriff announced Friday that he will support a resolution to make the county a Second Amendment sanctuary. "I am pro Second Amendment. You won't find many in the law enforcement profession that are not," Sheriff Ramon Pineiroa said in a statement. "To me, the resolution is a restatement of the Second Amendment. It references previous Supreme Court rulings regarding our right to bear arms and the Due Process Clause of the 14th amendment. It expresses concern and opposition to any laws that may infringe or unconstitutionally restrict citizens' rights to keep and bear arms." |

Note the reference to US. v. Miller.
Impressive.
And all-too-rare. |

TO REMEMBER |
| "Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
