And it has happened. Read the article.
Then there’s this good news: “Any federal regulation enacted by Congress or executive order…offending the constitutional rights of my citizens will not be enforced by me or my deputies.”
Update: A second Oregon sheriff has joined the first in declaring he will not enforce any federal regulation that violates the Constitution.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Whats wrong with these people, the president is only doing whats “right” and whats best for the
kids.
Maybe these items should be placed under “The Day of Reckoning Looms”. It seems like we’re in a race to see which will fail first: the economy, or society. A credible argument can be made that society has already failed, and we’re just running on momentum.
A 16 trillion dollar economy is BIG and has a lot of momentum, in addition when your
currency is the reserve currency of the world you can be cavalier about how much money you
spend and create. And that is where Americas real power lies, we are the reserve currency of the
world and the FED controls our interest rate not the market.
How long will that last ?
If you beleave that I have a bridge I’ld like to sell you.
Sounds like a easy to topple house of cards. If OPEC decides to price oil based on a non $ currency, of the fed ups interest rates, or China etc can’t extend us more credit (who really thinks we can/will pay back 16-20 trillion?), all fall down.
The sheriff of Washington county, OR, (where I live), has announced that his department won’t enforce proposed Federal legislation that he believes deprive citizens of 2nd Amendment rights. If Dear Leader had spent more time in the private sector instead of ‘community organizing’, he might have learned that one of the basic rules of leadership is not to make unenforcable policy. To do so invites loss of credibility. It’s one thing be thought weak by your opponents, but to be seen as such by your supporters is quite another.
This situation (local refusal to enforce Federal law) reminds me of a similar but opposite occurrence (Federal agency refusal to enforce state law) when I lived in St. Petersburg. In the late ’80’s/early ’90’s Florida passed a law requiring boats down to 15′ to be registered. This meant that a fair number of canoes, dories, skiffs, and other small boats would have to be registered. The Coast Guard publicly (and in a way that made clear what they thought of the law) announced that it wasn’t going to enforce that law, and a lot of legislators looked stupid.
