Oregon Sheriff: Gun Control Push ‘Borderline Treasonous,’ Will Not Enforce

While Oregon Democrats stood with Gabby Giffords and the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence to push expanded background checks on April 1, Grant County Sheriff Glenn Palmer stood for the law-abiding citizens whom the checks will target by describing the gun control push as “borderline treasonous.”

Palmer also made clear that if the Democrats pass the measure there is zero chance of his office enforcing it.  

Breitbart News previously reported that the push for expanded background checks in Oregon is being spearheaded by state senator Floyd Prozanski (D-Eugene). His efforts are strongly supported by the Brady Campaign and Giffords.

Giffords, in particular, believes every potential gun purchaser should have to pass the same background check her attacker passed to acquire his firearm, which the same background check Jerad and Amanda Miller (Las Vegas), Aaron Ybarra (Seattle Pacific University), Elliot Rodger (Santa Barbara), Ivan Lopez (Fort Hood 2014), Darion Marcus Aguilar (Maryland mall), Karl Halverson Pierson (Arapahoe High School), James Holmes (Aurora theater), Nidal Hasan (Fort Hood 2009), and many, many others passed to get the guns they used in their crimes.

The irony is not lost on Sheriff Palmer, who sees the push for expanded background checks as just another way to infringe on the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding citizens without impacting crime or criminals. For these reasons, Oregon Live said Palmer described the push as “borderline treasonous.”

Moreover, Palmer said the background checks pose a nightmare scenario for law enforcement officers who will be straddled with the responsibility of determining when a background should have been done but was not, as well as when a background check is not necessary to begin with.

Palmer said he has “no intention” of enforcing Prozanski’s bill if it becomes law.

  1. borderline?

    if that isn’t cognitive dissonance at its most F%CKING obvious.

    your statement is borderline because it shows you’ve heard the word treason before and therefor should know what it is when you see it.

    I wonder how man bordering rape cases this guy has solved.

    perhaps someone will borderline execute these half-witted quislings pretending to agree with common GD sence.

    1. Got to love how they pretend to be on or side. As if they are there to help us. A feel good story for the makeshift patriots.

      Your flag shop is out of stock so hang yourself at half mast.
      Dont be fooled. Dont be fooled. That sheriff is just as corrupt and guilty of sedition and treason as the one who shot the pregnant retarded woman. He just might not be as violent of a crook.

  2. BORDERLINE MY AX.
    THE POLITICAL SCUM SWORE AN OATH.
    IF FORCING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE INTO HELPLESSNESS AGAINST A TYRANT ISN’T CONSIDERED TREASON, PREY TELL ME WHAT IS?
    GOD BLESS BRAVE MEN AROUND THE COUNTRY LIKE
    Sheriff Palmer.

  3. Hahahaha!!! Borderline….that’s funny. Hey, a bank robber is a borderline thief and cop executing you is borderline murder. Oh and I’m sure the Zionist Jews are only “Borderline” psychopaths and not complete and utter psychopaths.

    Talk about ridiculous.
