First of all, Sheriff Lam, how many years were you in law enforcement? Almost 20. Same as me. And you’ve been very active with the CSPOA. You’ve been one of our keynote speakers, probably half a dozen timers or more. And you and I met because you were running for office and you asked for my endorsement, which I very heartily gave. Two times, both times that you ran, you were, Sheriff, what, seven, eight years? Eight years, yeah. Two terms. Yeah, and same as me. So, but this is the point I want to ask you. For everyone that’s here, this is a CSPOA Posse webinar.

And so we really focus on CSPOA and we focus on training and whatnot. But I want to hear this from you. I haven’t asked you this question before. I don’t know what you’re going to say. I’m pretty sure I think I know what you’re going to say, but it doesn’t matter. You say what you want and you always do. You always tell the truth. What would America look like if we had, which is our goal, a thousand to fifteen hundred sheriffs that were really constitutional? Sheriffs like you and and sheriffs like Darlene and Bob Songer and Sheriff David A.

Clark Jr. from Milwaukee. And Jack McLamb of yesteryear, right? Yeah. Yeah. And so what would America look like if we had about half of the sheriffs in America that were totally dedicated as constitutional sheriffs? Well, first of all, Richard, you know that anybody on this call that’s a CSPOA Posse member knows the importance of the role of the sheriff in protecting our constitutional rights and protecting us from the enemies. People used to always say, well, Sheriff, you can’t say that you’re the government. I said, no, no, no, I’m not the government. I’m your county sheriff.

My job is to protect you from the bad guys and from government overreach. I would have loved to have seen a lot more law enforcement and especially sheriffs stand up during COVID and say, we’re not doing this. I think America, to your point on the question, America would look a lot different had we actually stood up and said, we’re not doing all this nonsense. And our county looks very different because we didn’t do all that stuff. Same with the mass and the vaccines. Now we get into the border. Sheriffs are standing up and there’s a lot of great sheriffs in this country and I’m friends with a lot of them.

But I will tell you, I think the Constitution, not just for sheriffs, but for anybody who swears an oath in an elected official position, but really important in the position of sheriff, that you protect and defend the Constitution against all enemies born and domestic. And that is really what the crux of our oath is and what our job is. And unfortunately, a lot of elected officials do not do that. You’re right about that. [tr:trw].
