"Firearms
Freedom Act"
- Montana leads; many states follow.
Sheriffs
First (or no more Wacos).
This bill would make it a state crime for a federal officer to
arrest, search, or seize in Montana without first getting the written
permission of the elected county sheriff of the county in which the
action is to take place. Locally-elected sheriffs are
accountable to the people and are supposed to the the chief law
enforcement officer of the county, bar none. This bill puts
teeth into the expectation that federal agents must operate with the
approval of the sheriff, or not at all. There are exceptions
for "hot pursuit", customs and border patrol, corrupt
sheriffs, and more.
