TOP PRIORITIES
Restoring Power to the People
If I’m elected my top priorities will be to deputize every sound mind person in Lancaster County. Regardless of race creed or political affiliation. Anyone with common sense can see the President of the USA is attacking his political adversaries and calling them terrorist. The last time a President did this in the USA was during the Civil War. Politicians believe themselves to be above the average person. I’m going to give the People the same power I will have as Sheriff.
As Sheriff I will maintain a trusting relationship with the community by deputizing everyone who lives in the County. There will be both paid Sheriff Deputies as well as volunteer Deputies. There will be both paid and volunteer police investigations being ran out of my office. I aim to work side by side with the people and for them so that we may always be a free people.
Second Amendment
I support allowing citizens to carry firearms how they see fit. The 2nd Amendment states, “A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.”
Referred to in modern times as an individual’s right to carry and use arms for self-defense, the Second Amendment was envisioned by the framers of the Constitution, according to College of William and Mary law professor and future U.S. District Court judge St. George Tucker in 1803 in his great work Blackstone’s Commentaries: With Notes of Reference to the Constitution and Laws of the Federal Government of the United States and of the Commonwealth of Virginia, as the “true palladium of liberty.”
