“Those jurisdictions in urban areas can be a little suspect to say the least...So I probably wouldn’t rely on them as much as I would a rural Law Enforcement authority...”

Exactly. Conservatives who aren’t working to elect a constitutional sheriff in their county simply don’t understand the gravity of the current situation. A constitutional sheriff gives citizens armed muscle if needed. A constitutional sheriff can:

1. Order necessary armaments.

2. Investigate liberals in cities.

3. Control movements in the county.

4. Muster and train an armed, volunteer auxiliary deputy force for “emergencies.”

5. Arrest radicals, including elected and appointed members of city councils and county boards.

In my county, two police chiefs were investigated and thrown out of office. A number of county bureaucrats were investigated, arrested and thrown in state prison.

The power of a constitutional sheriff is extensive and can be used to protect the rights of citizens in that county.
