All Republican governors (and honest Democrat governors, if there are any) should forbid any federal agency taking action against any of the state's citizens using armed force without the express permission of the local sheriff's department, to be granted only if the sheriff's department is unable to handle the task.
You’re so right.
However I believe this is set up this way because of a county Sheriff that can handle the incident and telling the feds to get lost. The Bundy incident comes to mind though it didn’t come to that, at least it was never admitted it did.
I can think of several Sheriff’s in AZ and OR that would tell the feds to stuff it and there are others around the country that would do the same.
