That is a myth. Perhaps federal law enforcement will side the government. State and local far less likely. I spent 26 years as a city cop. I can tell you that in my experience, particularly in the West and the South, few local law enforcement officers have any love for the feds. In point of fact, my state representative group recently voted unanimously, to direct our lobbyists in D.C. to oppose any gun control measures except those designed to limit the power of the executive. In the state legislature, I only last week put together a position paper on behalf of my two representative groups, supporting a bill designed to nullify any gun control measures issued by the Executive office and to require the State AG or Governor to file suit over the same. No....not all law enforcement stands with the fed....

I hope you’re right. But what about the guy who posted a picture of his kid on FB holding an “assault” weapon and CPS came calling supported by local cops. They wanted the man’s guns. As I understand he stood his ground and they backed off. This time. But what bothers me is that the cops would even go to the man’s door with a complaint of nothing more than a picture of a kid holding a gun. The cops should have said “Bring us some evidence of that a crime is being committed.”
