I was recently asked what my department would do in that extreme case of confiscations by a local.
My answer was that too many citizens act like they want the LEO's to be on the other side. They act like it's a final redemption for them and their tin foil hat fantasies. If the Fed's pass some draconian gun laws, they can enforce them. We won't, and furthermore in my state the Sheriff's run the jails so find another place to house those charged with those crimes........I'm not sure she liked my answer as I never saw it make the news.
As was stated above, if these things are done in most of America there will be repercussions and consequences. We, the LEO's are the community and in other than the large cess pool cities we live in those same jurisdictions. My deputies live in the county we work in, are next doot neighbors, members of local churches, and eat the same places you do. I wouldn't go down in a blaze of glory, but there would be consequences if that came to pass. Leave it at that.
