Sheriff Arrested, Charged With Felony & Suspended For Releasing Man Carrying Gun Without Permit – “2nd Amendment Right”

Miami – In a developing story, Sheriff Nick Finch was arrested, charged with a felonyand suspended without pay for supporting a citizen’s 2nd Amendment rights. It’s not a story you hear every day. It’s certainly not a story you’d expect out of a county named Liberty.
The events began when Floyd Eugene Parrish, a Florida resident, was arrested and detained by one of Finch’s deputies for carrying a firearm without a permit on March 8th, 2013. In the state of Florida, this lands you a 3rd degree felony charge. Finch released Parrish because, in his assessment, Parrish was not a violent criminal and was acting innocuously. Finch called the clerk and told her not to draw up arrest documents until he was there to assess the situation. Note, Parrish had not been officially booked into jail- only detained.
The arresting deputy had multiple complaints for overstepping his authority from citizens over the past several months before Parrish’s arrest. A month after Parrish was released from jail Sheriff Finch decided he needed to launch an internal investigation against the deputy due to multiple complaints and phone calls he had received. Once the deputy found out that an investigation was going to be launched against him, he resigned to keep the investigation from occurring. On May 1st, the deputy, who was no longer employed in the state of Florida, filed a complaint against Finch for the Parrish arrest that took place more 2 months beforehand.
Rick Scott, Florida governor, stepped in and had Finch arrested. Governor Scott then appointed a new sheriff. Finch says he did not vote for the Governor. “I’m not a republican, or a democrat. Just a man who believes in the Constitution,” says Finch. A rally was recently organized by Libertarian gubernatorial candidate Adrian Wyllie. Governor Scott was invited to speak, but was a no show.

Citizens of America, you have the right to bear arms. This is your 2nd Amendment Right.
NO ONE CAN TAKE THAT AWAY. The supreme Court of the United States declared in Heller vs DC, http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/html/07-290.ZS.html That a citizen has the Right to own and operate a handgun LEGALLY.
It does not say you must register it. It does not say you must have a trigger lock. It does not say you must practice every two years, and it is most certainly NOT ILLEGAL to possess.
So why don’t you candy a$$ idiots stop picking and choosing, own up to the responsibility of being a citizen, and tell the courts to take a flying leap when the try to tell you you can’t have a gun.
In ALL STATES, you are allowed to possess a gun. It does not say how many, nor does it say what kind; (war weapons like bazookas are obvious),
there are NO restrictions on how many rounds you can buy or own.
People, YOU represent the Constitution, damn it, support it.
