Scotland County, Missouri Sheriff Bryan Whitney has told the FBI to pound sand when they told him they were going to audit his department, including access to lists of county citizens holding concealed carry permits.  Sheriff Whitney told citizens if threatened with federal arrest, he was willing to "go down with the ship."  Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmidt is backing the sheriff, telling the FBI that their snooping on law abiding citizens is not wanted in Missouri.

This is a very good example of why it is better to have law enforcement in the hands of an elected sheriff rather than an appointed police chief. Is there any appointed police chief in the country who would have stood up to the FBI to protect citizens the way this elected sheriff has done? We saw the same thing on Covid overreach by governors. Many elected sheriffs around the country, including many here in eastern North Carolina, refused to enforce the Covid overreach decrees of overbearing governors. The only appointed police chiefs who did so were in counties where they did not want to be taking a different stance than their local sheriffs.

Beaufort County has a great candidate for sheriff, Scott Hammonds, and I completely trust him to stand up for citizens rights against government overreach.
