Agree or Disagree, Sheriffs Must Enforce New State Gun Law

After their elections, county sheriffs take an oath to uphold the laws of the country, state and county — even when they disagree. At least 13 county sheriffs have said they won’t enforce the state’s new gun law, Initiative 1639. They must reconsider, enforce the law as it is and find another, legal way to protest. Not to do so is to flout their oath and responsibility to citizens.

Wrong. All government officials are bound by oath to uphold, defend and protect the Constitution. If a legislature passes and a governor signs an unconstitutional law, it is by nature of its unconstitutionality null and void.

And contrary to popular belief, the Constitution is what it is and says what it says quite apart from court opinions. In our system of government, courts, legislatures and executive branches are co-equal, and courts are not superior to the other two.

And none of them are superior to the document that limits their powers.

You don't vote on Rights. They apparently realize that by following illegal orders that appear, and probably are illegal should be ignored. Why would they want to be an accomplice in the actions against law abiding citizens of this nation? The Sheriffs don't want to do your dirty and illegal work for you.. TITLE 18, U.S.C., SECTION 242 states that those actions are a federal crime.
 

 QUOTES TO REMEMBER
"Let us contemplate our forefathers, and posterity, and resolve to maintain the rights bequeathed to us from the former, for the sake of the latter. The necessity of the times, more than ever, calls for our utmost circumspection, deliberation, fortitude, and perseverance. Let us remember that `if we suffer tamely a lawless attack upon our liberty, we encourage it, and involve others in our doom.' It is a very serious consideration...that millions yet unborn may be the miserable sharers of the event." --Samuel Adams, speech in Boston, 1771
