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. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
