Then again, seeing as we fought WW2 against fascists like Mack...
And BTW, if Obama is a "tyrant," why is Mack and his cronies not dead or in maximum security prisons?
Richard Mack, the former sheriff of Graham County, Arizona, who now heads the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, told Steve Deace yesterday that although he is a pacifist, states and counties need to enforce their sovereignty in areas like marriage equality and gun control, or else we will lose liberty in America, and we will not get it back unless theres bloodshed. Mack, who argues that county sheriffs are not accountable to federal authority and so should not enforce laws that they believe violate the Constitution, told Deace that America has been losing liberty for a long time, but it took a tyrant and communist in our own White House to wake a lot of people up.
(snip)
Mack also agreed with Deace that Obama is a communist, saying, Youd have be stupid not to know that hes a Marxist. We fought two world wars to stop communism in this country, he said.

They don't want you to have a gay marriage, so (if they had their way) not only would you not have one, they'd have the right to punish you for wanting one. There are plenty of people on the far right who believe homosexuality should be illegal.

(32,324 posts)He said that Native Americans in Lake County Calif. had never contributed anything to society, as they did not have a written down history.
Then he voted to allow a rich and influential couple to build their million dollar home and building complex right over a site of archaeological remains in which many experts had expressed great interest.
And it should also be noted that the Pomo and Miwok Indians can trace their history back some 10,000 years, while we are only at 239 years and counting.

Was that not the point of the war?
Sounds like he went to Oklahoma for American History (Revised)101
So now sheriffs are the Supreme Law of the County?
Can a county re-establish slavery under this new principle? take away the vote from women or minorities?
Maybe his hatband is a little too tight and there is a loss of blood flow to the brain.
