In the six years since, many counties in states across the U.S. have followed that lead. Last week, it was Oklahoma’s turn. First, Logan County Sheriff Damon Devereaux, in a signed resolution, vowed no public funds will be used to enact policies that restrict the Second Amendment rights of Logan County residents. The next day, Stephens County (Duncan) Sheriff Wayne McKinney did the same. Since that time, a dozen additional county sheriffs across the Sooner State have followed their lead and declared their county a Second Amendment sanctuary.
Critics claim the declarations are purely for optics and are meaningless, but that is not true because the Second Amendment is a local issue. |

The resolution is flawed. It SHOULD read:
"Recognizing the U.S. Constitution GUARANTEES the individual right to keep and bear arms, we the duly elected delegates of the Stephens County support the designating of Stephens County as a Second Amendment sanctuary county." |
