Should counties have the right to defy state laws?
Yes, if counties should be able to!
No, they should abide state laws!
I think every county should follow state laws. If they see an ordinance has a conflict with state law, it shouldn't pass.

No but, they have the right (and should benefit from it) to deviate from the FEDERAL norms and mandates when warranted. You know the goose and the gander comparisons don't you?..........Same here!

We have to get Oregon out of the Democrat's hands and their destructive ways!
ReplyFederal law trumps state or local laws...UNLESS the state or local laws benefit then the state or local laws prevail. For example. If a federal law says you cannot protect yourself but a state or local law says you can, then the helpful law prevails. Its been like that for years.
ReplyThe state is no longer representing the people. The laws are contrary to the Constitution. The government is betraying its own people.
ReplyLocal control of government. No laws shall be passed that infringe on individuals rights. 2 ND amendment is for the citizens to maintain control of their own person and their government. Without it the country will fail.
ReplyWhen laws are contradictory to the Constitution they should not be enforced. When tyranny becomes law disobedience become necessary! STOP VOTING FOR LIBERAL DEMOCRATS
ReplyThe right of the people to keep and bear arms SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED
ReplyIf the state can defy federal laws, the counties should be able to defy state laws.
ReplyDepending on what they are? In this case for guns yes because the State is going against the Constitution for our 2nd amendment right.. "SHALL NOT INFRINGE" SAYS IT ALL!!!
ReplyEvery elected official takes an oath to uphold the Constitution and are obligated to ignore any law they believe to believe to be unconstitutional.
ReplyMultnomah County doesn't follow the laws. Portland is quickly becoming like Chicago. Crime and murder are on the rise all over Oregon. Oregon, California and Washington are being destroyed by democrats.
