” 1. Assume that the Supreme Court has struck down a federal law, but the DHS shows up in your county to enforce it anyway. What do you do? And no, you don’t have time to consult with the state bigwigs, the DHS is busting down doors and hauling away your citizens, so you have to act now. 2. Assume that the Supreme Court has struck down a state law, but the state law enforcement officials show up in your county to enforce it anyway. What do you do?”

Great question;one with no easy answer.

A lot also depends on the lower courts, and the state. If you are arrested for breaking a law which has been found unconstitutional, the local judge is supposed to order your release.

And in a state like Indiana, legislation passed last month allows you to legally open fire upon LEOs who illegally attempt to use force against you.

Now is the time to have the discussions with the Mayor and the County sheriff. BEFORE DHS COMES IN BUSTING DOORS.
