I wish I could snail-mail a personal copy of “What I saw at the coup” to every member of the Senior Executive Service.
It’s really directed to them.
My comments are directed to every executive in every department that is a part of our state, county and city governments and the members of the state justice system.
The lower level managers do not make executive decisions regarding the treatment of American citizens. They had nothing to do with the decision to purchase 1.2 billion firearm cartridges. They won’t be the ones making the decision to round up American citizens. They will not be the ones allowing federal LEO’s or military troops to conduct operations in our states. Those decisions will be made by state Governors and city Mayors. The city attorney will have to advise them that what they want to do is legal. The Chief of Police and the County sheriff will have to turn a blind eye to the Bill of Rights.
They will all have to forget that they swore an oath against all enemies, whether domestic or foreign.
I, ........................., do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support, protect and defend the Constitution and government of the United States, and the Constitution and government of the State of Nevada, against all enemies, whether domestic or foreign, and that I will bear true faith, allegiance and loyalty to the same, any ordinance, resolution or law of any state notwithstanding, and that I will well and faithfully perform all the duties of the office of ................, on which I am about to enter; (if an oath) so help me God; (if an affirmation) under the pains and penalties of perjury. [1:185:1915; 1919 RL § 2891; NCL § 4925]
At one time, it might have been a good idea. Now it is best to let people like those alone.
