Judges can order enforcement of their orders"""

Sorry, but a local judge can't tell county cops (the county being a subdivision of state government) to shoot at state police and repel a state agency sent by the governor. Your suggestion otherwise just shows you've bought into the judicial tyranny that we're being ruled by. Traditionally, it's the EXECUTIVE who has to enforce judicial rulings. Hamilton said precisely this in the Federalist Papers - as a reason why the courts are the "least dangerous branch": They have to rely on the executive to enforce their rulings. But Greer cut through the middleman and assumed the role of an executive. So he killed Terri - and he's helping to further the death of constituitonal government.

English common law makes it clear that the county sherriff is the highest law enforcement official in the county; all other entities (including the state government) are their at the sherriff's sufferance.

Traditionally, it's the EXECUTIVE who has to enforce judicial rulings.

And the county executive would be doing exactly that.

You say that so nicely!

But they have to want to know the truth, first, to accept it when they see it.
