KY Sheriff Begging for Impeachment

Really, Jackson County?  You want to give the virtually unlimited powers county sheriffs already have in Kentucky to someone who usurps the authority of the courts to decide which laws he enforces and which ones he doesn't?


Jack Brammer at the Herald:

An Eastern Kentucky sheriff said Saturday that he will not enforce any new gun control laws that he considers unconstitutional.

Asked whether such a stance makes him more a judge than a law-enforcement official, Jackson County Sheriff Denny Peyman said he has "a team of attorneys to step up with me if necessary to be sure the Second Amendment is upheld."

"I consider this a moral obligation," he said.

Peyman, who has been sheriff of Jackson County for two years and is a member of the National Rifle Association, is garnering national attention and support from gun rights advocates for saying Saturday, "My office will not comply with any federal actions which violate the United States Constitution or the Kentucky Constitution which I swore to uphold."
That would be the same Kentucky Constitution he has been shitting on for the past two years.
Peyman dismissed problems he has with Jackson County Judge-Executive William O. Smith and the Jackson County Fiscal Court.

They say Peyman's office owes the fiscal court more than $278,000 in payroll assistance from when he took office in January 2011. Peyman says there is no problem, but the court has called for an investigation and has set up a county police department. Peyman said he now has no deputies.
Recall this motherfucker now, Jackson County, or don't come crying to the ACLU when he starts tasing your children and grandmas for looking at him cross-eyed.
