Sheriff Minor Misunderstands Rights

Sheriff Minor recently agreed to support the ban on defensive weapons at county facilities, which demonstrates that Sheriff Minor does not understand the 2nd amendment to the Constitution.

Today Sheriff Minor endorsed the current big-government liberal District Attorney.  The surprise is the endorsement letter shows Sheriff Minor is illiterate or purposefully blind.  From the endorsement, Sheriff Minor wrote this run-on sentence, "The district attorney's office is unique, they protect the Constitutional rights of all they serve, they help protect our community and keep it safe, while at the same time insuring the rights of our victims are met or exceeded."

This part of Sheriff Minor's letter is interesting in that it highlights Sheriff Minor's misunderstanding of rights, "insuring the rights of our victims are met or exceeded."

A person has rights.  A victim is a person who has had their rights violated.  Once a person's rights are violated, it can't be undone even by a District Attorney.  Implying the DA could undo the harm to restore or "exceed" the rights is ridiculous.

Not only is Sheriff Minor illiterate and foolishly wrote a ridiculous endorsement letter claiming a DA can restore or "exceed" rights to a victim, Sheriff Minor is still pursuing the outlawing of defensive weapons by regular people.

It is time two big-government liberals, DA Mark Hurlbert and Sheriff Minor, find new jobs.
