Two counties in Nevada have stated that they would criminalize violations of their citizens' rights, as written in the Bill of Rights, including state or federal authorities. Will they criminally prosecute big tech for censorship on Twitter and Facebook? I certainly hope so (to be cited in other states). Their next step should be protecting their citizenry from excise tax enforcement, a.k.a. federal income tax.
Why can't Alabama do that? Being a red state we should have these protections, too. However, we are also a welfare state, so I can't see it happening here.
Elected officials have declared that the Bill of Rights will be upheld in their jurisdictions, even if it means standing against unconstitutional acts by state and federal authorities.
According to a resolution approved in Elko County on June 2, abuse of the constitutionally protected rights of citizens in Elko and Lander counties will be “dealt with as criminal activity.†Officials in Lander County approved a similar effort.
Under the leadership of constitutionally minded sheriffs and elected commissioners, the two rural counties in Nevada decided to become “constitutional counties†where the rights of citizens will be protected from all attacks.
That means local authorities intend to uphold the entire Bill of Rights in those jurisdictions, and that even federal and state officials must comply with the U.S. Constitution there, they said.
