Perhaps it is nonsense to you "fella", but here in Idaho, and particularly in Limhi county (and in a groing number of counties throughout the west) it certainly is not.

The Sheriff there was not "cuffed" or "stuffed". Similar events have occurred in Wyoming, Montana, Utah, and Nevada.

No one wants an end to our Federal government. We just want it to operate within the bounds it was established.

The point is Federal jurisdiction covers anywhere in the U.S. Some of these hickish boobs may experience a "sudden cessation of ignorance" if/when they push it too far. They will learn the meaning of the words "with all due respect, I *request* that you (x, y, or z.)"

Yes sir. The Constitution is very clear and explicit on where those boundaraies are. The expansion of Federal power via the Commerce Clause has corrupted the Founders' intention of a limited central government.

The 16th and 17th Amendments were drastic mistakes as well, IMO, but at least the Amendment process was the proper way to change the powers of the Federal government.
