Jackson County Sheriff Denny Peyman has some advice for federal officials attempting to confiscate legal guns held by citizens in his jurisdiction: “go ahead, make my day.”

Sheriff Peyman says he is very concerned about proposed federal legislation that could result in massive gun ownership bans and orders of confiscation.

“My office will not comply with any federal action which violates the United States Constitution or the Kentucky Constitution which I swore to uphold,” Peyman said. “Let them pull that stuff in other places if they want, but not in Jackson County, Kentucky.”

Peyman hopes his strong stand in support of the Second Amendment encourages law enforcement officers around Kentucky and elsewhere to reassure citizens of their protection from overzealous federal action on gun control.

“Just a few of us have to be willing to stand up to political opposition putting our people at risk,” Peyman said. “The other side will back down

This is an example of one of those areas where one or a few TFA volunteers could take up the torch and write a certified letter to every sheriff and chief law enforcement officer in Tennessee asking them to similarly stand with this sheriff and execute a letter of similar accord. The request, however, would need to be coupled with a request that they send a copy of the respective letters back to TFA (c/o that volunteer or group) so that it could be reported and promoted by TFA as a stand in support of the citizens of Tennessee.
