Tazewell County forms active militia to protect sheriffs and citizens from unconstitutional laws

“Our position is that Article I, Section 13, of the Constitution of Virginia reserves the right to ‘order’ militia to the localities. Therefore, counties, not the state, determine what types of arms may be carried in their territory and by whom. So, we are ‘ordering’ the militia by making sure everyone can own a weapon.”

Thus, if anyone from the state tries to remove the Sheriff from their elected office because they refuse to enforce unjust laws, those state officials will be faced with a lawful militia composed of citizens within the state.

If cops do not support the county then all of this is nothing more than fiery rhetoric.

I don't get this, the county already has a militia.

Code of Virginia
§ 44-1. Composition of militia.
The militia of the Commonwealth of Virginia shall consist of all able-bodied residents of the Commonwealth who are citizens of the United States and all other able-bodied persons resident in the Commonwealth who have declared their intention to become citizens of the United States, who are at least 16 years of age and, except as hereinafter provided, not more than 55 years of age. The militia shall be divided into three classes: the National Guard, which includes the Army National Guard and the Air National Guard; the Virginia Defense Force; and the unorganized militia.

Would you fire on cops standing between you and the tyrants?

I would first give the cops the opportunity to step aside.

Funny thing about rules. They give you a line to walk-up to and not cross.

Yet the tyrants in VA can't wait to step across the line that's been clearly drawn and get knocked back across it.
