I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the Governor is the top of the executive branch of the state. It would be like a military general telling Trump to F- off. However, the Sheriffs can argue that no boss can force them to break the law and since the Constitution is the supreme law of the land, the Governor is breaking the law.

Sheriffs are elected. They can do what ever the fuck they want. Now the police chiefs that a different story. They have to enforce what ever law this ass hole says they have to enforce. Let say Bernie was presedent tomorrow and like he says he wants to make guns illegal. So he says to everyone turn in your guns because if you dont I will send federal agents into take them. Ok well the folks in the county will turn to there sheriff. The sheriff is an elected official. Their ideas are going to be the same as the people who elect them. So if there is a community who elect a strong second amendment sheriff and that sheriff has a pair. Then when those federal agents come and try to take the guns the sheriff can lawfully deputize ever citizens in his district and direct them to kill any federal agent who steeps foot on there land. The best part is it's all legally A fucken OK. Its constitutional. It's part of the checks and balances. Police chiefs work under the executive branch(the president). The sheriff are locally elected(answers to the people). So please find out what your sheriff ideals are. Dont let them be a (((cunt))). Because if he has no balls. Then well let's just hope he does.
Police officers can refuse to obey an illegal order. They may very well have to defend their choice in court eventually, but they do not have to follow an illegal directive. Which make the one's that do all the more disgusting.
Sheriffs are elected to office. Wonder what their constituents think about this kind of threat.
Here is where we are today in our nation and its once-united-yet-sovereign states. Instead of local governance -- by the consent of the governed who elect their officials and 'governors' -- some overbearing and oppressive officials are trying to override the will of the people.
UNLESS or UNTIL The People rise up in opposition to this mild tyranny, insane tyranny will ensue.
There are already lawsuits going through the courts regarding red flag laws, but such things take time. Lawsuits were filed the instant Florida passed theirs and that was, I think 2 years ago now? It's been a while. The point is that the courts don't do things overnight.

Oh fucking well. I would tell the Governor to pound sand, and go get them himself. The Sheriff can call in Federal Marshalls and arrest his ass.

Actually, Sheriff is a constitutional office and they do not work for the Governor.

The sheriffs should tell her to fuck off and pound sand.
All sheriffs are elected and should deputize the county's citizens like the sheriffs did in Virginia.

The longer it takes, the more time Trump has to replace activist hackjobs with real judges who will rule against it.
