When an officer of the law, Sheriff Mueller, refuses to enforce the laws of the land, he needs step down. Mueller is validating gun nuts and their sickness.
Anyone who feels the need to own more than two guns (two hands), “assault weapons” and the high-capacity ammunition clips is, in my opinion, seriously sick and in need of help.
Killing and maiming others is the gun’s only purpose. Violence and destruction their only purpose. Amassing a personal arsenal is not the same as, say, collecting postage stamps. There is nothing benign about guns.
And all that crap about the constitution is just that: crap. This is 2013. The Second Amendment was written over 200 years ago. Times were different and the big concern of our forefathers was protection against tyranny when we were newly minted, small and vulnerable.
The Second Amendment is no longer justifiable, relevant. It was never meant to be static either but modernize with the times.
Get over it. And if you feel unsafe living here in America, know that it is because of you that it is so…. you with all your easy guns flooding the streets of America and into the hands of the criminal and paranoid gun nuts.
It’s a self-perpetuating vicious circle you irresponsible gun worshipers started in motion. You are arming the bad guys.
Mueller said he won’t enforce any federal regulation “offending the constitutional rights of my citizens.”
I’m not your citizen, Mueller! I am a Linn County resident but I’m a United States of America citizen first.
And Mueller said he won’t permit federal officers to come to his county to enforce such laws either. I say what arrogance, mein fuhrer Mueller. You have no right in my opinion or by law (shows his ignorance of law) to keep federal officers from coming into my county. This is my county too, buddy!
Mueller has proven to be totally irresponsible in his position of authority.
I call for Mueller’s resignation.
