Utah Sheriffs Speaking Out

Haven't seen this posted here yet, I really respect these gentlemen for doing this. It shows that they stand for something bigger than themselves.

Is this the sentiment found throughout most LE agency's?

I don't know about most, but I can guarantee you that you will not find that sentiment among the Sheriff's of Los Angeles and San Francisco, nor the Chief of LAPD. They are true gun grabbers. They are politicians, not leos anymore. The LA County Sheriff rarely issues ccw permits and when he does, it is to retired judges, ADAs, celebrities and those who contribute large sums to his campaign chest. I am sure they support whatever bans the anti gunners want to impose.

Some of the Sheriffs of the smaller counties in Ca. probably have the same sentiment as the ones in Utah, but whether or not they would ever write such a letter, I don't know.

Fresno and Stanislaus County Sheriffs wrote similiar letters, I was impressed.

That letter actually came from their Union, not the Sheriff himself.

L.A. County Sheriff Leroy Baca is a gun grabber and he does NOT issue CCW's except to his special interests.
