Another sheriff gets it right

Charleston County (S.C.) Sheriff Al Cannon says, “As a law enforcement officer, we have an obligation,… to enforce lawful laws… Constitutional laws. It’s very similar to the responsibility that a military member has to, on one hand, obey orders, but he’s also obligated not to follow unlawful orders and it’s left up to that individual to make that decision.”

What do you suppose is the position in McHenry County, Ill. of the County Sheriff and the Chiefs of Police of the numerous municipal police departments?

Would Sheriff Nygren stand up in front of the press and the County Board and make an identical, or even a similar, statement? How about Undersheriff Zinke? Or are they really gun-grabbers?

And what about the Chiefs? Where do you suppose Chiefs Lowen, Black, Jones and Perkins stand? And how about the chiefs of the smaller departments in the County?

Depends.Are they Democrats or RINO's? If so, they will tow the party lne. If they are free thinkers or people with good critical thinking skill, no.
In all honesty Gus, I expect that most Chiefs will tow the Obama line and come out against guns. Most are political hacks. But remember, Chiefs of Police DO NOT represent the rank and file. They are so far out of touch with what happens on the street otherwise known as reaity, that I wouldn't be surprised if every one of them comes out in favor of massive control.

Big Daddy you are right on the mark but so it dorsn't appear that they are ALL Obama drones some will be "given leave" to stand against the gun grabbers so as to give the appearance of a real discussion.
