[dcs_thinspliter size=”medium”]
Since the Ferguson Incident in August of 2014, President Obama has called for more Federal Oversight of law enforcement.
[dcs_rounded_box padding=”15px” margin=”24px 0px 0px 0px”]
Following that incident, President Obama asked a group of individuals to prepare a study on 21st Century Policing that includes measures by which law enforcement could be federalized.
Not surprisingly, many of the study’s findings and suggestions have nothing to do with the details or evidence surrounding Officer Wilson and Michael Brown but read like a social justice wish list for minorities, lesbians, gays, bisexuals, transgenders, and protesters who riot in response to half-truths propagated by race-hucksters stirring the pot in Ferguson, New York City, and Baltimore.

The focus seems to be on adding additional restraint and oversight of Sheriffs opposing gun control.
[dcs_rounded_box padding=”15px” margin=”24px 0px 0px 0px”]
It must be noted that one stark result of such federalization would be the successful and quiet removal of opposition to gun control via new constraints on sheriffs around the country who currently enjoy relative freedom from extensive federal input and oversight. As we have seen from the Sandy Hook Elementary attack until now, the strongest voices against federal gun control have often been sheriffs in states where gun rights reign supreme. These same sheriffs have also pushed back against anti-Second Amendment legislators in their own states by pledging their refusal to enforce new gun laws, should such laws be enacted.
Federalizing sheriffs would effectively moot this opposition.
Here are some of the suggestions put forth in the study:
These are just a few of the many suggestions, but they provide insight into how federalization would look.
For instance, note ACTION ITEM 1.8.4, which makes clear that the flow of federal funding to departments and offices would be tied to whether said departments and agencies comported with federal requirements on certain matters. Where, in such requirements, would wiggle room remain for sheriffs or small police departments to continue to live and work in ways reflective of the small communities in they live?
