President Barack Obama’s gun control measures reflect his commitment to the Second Amendment, White House Press Secretary Jay Carney said Tuesday, adding that local law enforcement should enforce any measures passed at the federal level.

The Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (CSPOA) has the support of 381 sheriffs and the cooperation of 15 state sheriff associations asserting they would not enforce federal or state gun laws they consider unconstitutional.

The list posted on the CSPOA website included sheriffs and associations from states that traditionally support Democrats, including Obama’s home state, the Illinois Sheriffs Association.

CSPOA founder Richard Mack was not surprised by Carney’s response.

“Politicians who violate the Constitution never say I’m violating the Constitution, come and arrest me,” Mack told CNSNews.com Tuesday

Mack, who has previously won the NRA Law Officer of the Year, was inducted into the NRA Hall of Fame, and won the Gun Owners of America Defender of the Second Amendment Award, also contested Carney’s point that “people ought to follow the law.” Mack said that’s not true if the law contradicts the Bill of Rights.

“Every one of the sheriffs is going to follow the Constitution, not follow the president or the Supreme Court,” Mack said. “The Supreme Court has already ruled twice for the Second Amendment. The federal government has no right to tell me how many magazines I can have, how many guns I can have and how much ammunition I can have.”

This is going to get ugly & it might be one of the reasons the DHS is buying up so much ammunition.
