Survival and Emergency Preparedness

His extracurricular issues are determined for him to be guilty, he is found ineligible for the Job, and thus was in violation of the position, which he knew when he took it, thus any of his charges are null and void while there. Including making you all deputies.

Yeah, here’s the thing about that...

His alleged affair was when he worked FOR a different agency. It may have violated that agencies policies, but he’s not longer there so it’s moot. On the other hand, he’s now a duly elected official i.e. a Sheriff in a completely different county. An alleged affair that happened at another time in another place apparently didn’t prevent him from becoming a duly elected official. So he isn’t going to lose his job because the only way to remove him is to lose his next election or be removed by the Governor for something a lot more serious than an alleged affair.

We do not live in a land of black/white and laws, or justice. We live in a land of argumentative lawyers, debate, precedent, and politics.

Yeah, here’s the thing about that...

It’s been done, all over the country at different times in our history. Even into recent times.

See Florida State Statute 30.071 (1) (d).

It is the same authority that the POTUS can institute to enable the NG and/or regular military to execute law enforcement;

So there ya go. It has been done many, many times and can still be done and is done when it’s felt necessary and appropriate to the situation.

Dave - did you read all of that? Based on the Florida Statute, it isn't that easy.
Based on the article - I repeat; You could easily end up in jail on trial for your actions - especially based on the Florida Statute.

Now - the Federal article? OMG; Been taxing to run amok since early 1800's....That was a VERY interesting read. As always - once a Government acquires a power, it NEVER gives it up.

The point again is that it is legal, a Sheriff has and always has had that authority and it has been used all the way up to now. That’s the facts.

I agree - not impossible. But like I said - I'm not gonna be the test case!

You wouldn't be. It's been done for hundreds of years already.

Saw a thing yesterday were Antifa is going into some residential areas of Portland now. Mostly preying on the elderly.

When will the people in Portland have enough?

when the dems allow the cops to actually use real force AND then the judges actually charge the people a healthy penalty
