BJ Barnes isn't gonig to waste his time chasing shadows, and he isn't going to be bullied into joining the crowd:
I was not going to posture against something that at this point has not happened...Unlike the former Sheriff from Arizona, I don't have a book to sale or nonprofit to fund or speaking engagements I'm trying to book. I have a county of approx: 485,000 people who look to me and the men and women who work with me to protect their homes and families and you can be assured we will contine to do that.


I can't get the link in your post to open, but Barnes said much the same thing to me for today's story in the N&R -- and I spoke to former sheriff Mack, too.

Sorry, it's a post at his FB page, he frames it in terms of his interview with the N&R.

Ah, got it to open.
Wow -- Barnes' Facebook page is overflowing with support. I guess I expected at least some conflict.
We can always be surprised.

The GOP in olden times boasted lots of level-headed people. BJ is a dinosaur and one of favorite Republicans.
