CHARLESTON, W.Va.
(AP) - Some West Virginia sheriffs are opposing proposed federal gun control
legislation. They say they won't enforce any laws that they believe violate the
Second Amendment right to bear arms.
Media outlets report that Boone County Sheriff Randall White
sent a letter this week to President Barack Obama voicing his opposition. He
says the government should instead focus on the small number of people who
commit crimes involving guns.
Raleigh County Sheriff Steve Tanner says he's charged with
defending the U.S. Constitution. And that includes the Second Amendment.
Putnam County Sheriff Steve DeWeese says people have the right
to bear arms. He also says he believes people have the right to defend
themselves, especially in their homes.
