Coos County, Oregon has passed an unconstitutional "Second Amendment Preservation Measure" that gives the local sheriff the power to pick and choose which gun laws he wants to enforce.
The text of the Coos County ordinance declares "any regulation of the right to keep and bear arms" to be void and tasks the sheriff with determining which local, state and federal regulations violate the Constitution. It also stipulates that no county funds or resources may be dedicated to enforcing the state's newly expanded background checks, which cover private gun sales.
Sheriff Craig Zanni told the local media that he doesn't intend to perform his job any differently and I'd say that's a good plan because it would be unconstitutional if he did. The whole measure is blatantly unconstitutional.
Sheriffs are not the ultimate authority that wingnuts believe them to be.
Nine people were gunned down at Umpqua Community College in the nearby city of Roseburg (see map above) last month.
