[QUOTE="kingfish, post: 3897852, member: 50496"] I'll tell you where you are wrong on this. Yes the law is the law, but these sheriffs have sworn to defend the Constitution of the United States. If they believe the law is unconstitutional, which I think most of us here believe it is, then it is their duty to not enforce it. This is entirely different from prosecutors refusing to file charges against those who violate state statutes. So let's say you are in the army and martial law is declared by the President. Your commanding officer orders you to fire upon an "unruly" crowd protesting. I can assume you are one who will be pulling the trigger? After all the law is the law. [/QUOTE]
