Title: Sheriff's departments
Post by: sarari65 on January 25, 2014, 12:06:10 PM

I heard from someone that knows a sheriff dep. that the feds were making them become Fed. Marshals by threatening to withhold funding , he said this Dep. would quit the Dept. before doing so ! Is this true ?

Can someone give us a better account of this story other than a "friend of a person of a person I know" kind of source?   I too have heard a rumor along this line but have no factual information to go on.   A full story citing reference would be interesting and informative to read. :)

This link will get you lots of videos of sheriff offices standing up to the feds.

My guess would be that it started when the Fed wanted to push a bunch of restrictions on people like us.  The Sheriff's stood up and said no way.  Someone started a rumor that they would be turned into Marshall's which in turn would essentially mean they would have to enforce the Federal Laws or get fired and replaced by another Marshall who would.

The OP hasn't been on since he made this post.  Sounds like he just posted it to stir up some crap and had no intentions of actually getting a legitimate answer.  Member for almost a year and this is his only post?  Hmm.

So, you would like to remove a member from the forum because he hasn't posted in the last 4 weeks?

There are approximately 1500 forum members that have yet to post anything in 2014... should we remove all of them too?


This is possibly one of the most disappointing things I've read in a very long time.
