Very few sheriffs had the guts to publicly state they would not enforce unconstitutional covid mandates. They were unconstitutional. That has been proven. It was illegal for officers of the law to enforce them. I don't think the primary law enforcement problem in the US is Sheriffs. Say what you will about police. These are not the same organizations.

Are you talking about mask mandates or vaccine mandates?

    The OHSA mandate never went into effect as far as I know. Besides even if it did go into effect it wouldn't be something a sheriff would enforce, as it is up to OHSA to enforce its mandates.

      The administration used news outlets to pump the mandate and companies preemptively executed the order. OSHA does not yet have any policing powers, this was an attempt to generate them.

        So what does this have to do with your original claim of police enforcing unconstitutional mandates? Nothing? I'm losing the thread here...

What specific mandates were proven unconstitutional?

      Honestly, I don't blame you. A genuine news release from a .gov site was not on the first couple pages of search results. However, that is by design. https://gov.alaska.gov/supreme-court-decision-forces-biden-administration-to-withdraw-broad-employer-vaccine-mandate-states-warn-against-seeking-narrower-rule/ https://gov.alaska.gov/supreme-court-decision-forces-biden-a...

        That political press release doesn't support your earlier point that it was proven "unconstitutional." In fact review of the SCOTUS opinion shows that they (6-3) found that OSHA exceeded their congressional authority, not violated the US Constitution. > “Although Congress has indisputably given OSHA the power to regulate occupational dangers, it has not given that agency the power to regulate public health more broadly,” the court wrote If you want to show how this was unconstitutional then you'll need to show something else entirely. This SCOTUS opinion isn't proof of that, no matter if it is from a ".gov" site or not.

Can you please stop making everything about COVID. There haven't been new mandates and there isn't a new world order and we're not all dying from the vaccine. Just please stop making everything about COVID. Please.
