Oath Keepers Sheriff Wants To Arrest Judge Who Jailed Kim Davis
Source: Right Wing Watch/People for the American Way
One of the organizers on the ground for the Oath Keepers short-lived Kim Davis mission was Denny Peyman, a former sheriff of Jackson County, Kentucky, and member of the constitutional sheriffs movement, which believes that county sheriffs are the nations highest law enforcement officers and therefore have the power to unilaterally arrest federal officials.
In an interview with the far-right radio program Liberty Roundtable , Peyman said that if he had been sheriff when Davis was found in contempt of court for defying court orders to issue marriage licenses, he would have blocked U.S. Marshals from arresting Davis and would have instead personally arrested the judge who found her in contempt.
I would have loved for that to happen when I was in office, he said. It would have been a completely different scenario would have come out of this whole thing. Yeah, Denny Peyman would have bust out and arrested that judge for violating due process, huh? asked Sam Bushman, the programs host.
Exactly, Peyman responded. The judges all take care of each other. Ive turned in enough evidence and stuff and all they do is seal it and make sure it doesnt get back out. They take care of each other. When I arrested the judge here and stuff, they basically protected him, because they could be next and they know that.

Arrest him. Take his toys away. Sentence him to passing a high school civics/government exam.

(50,557 posts)The charge is "kidnapping a federal official." Convicted sheriffs don't do too well in prison, son.

Yeah, I know people like that. . . And they disgust me-- all of them.

(65,010 posts)They did not try to perform a Gomer and do a citizen's arrest on any of them.
The federal authorities let the Bundy bunch slide because it really wasn't worth it.
Taking a federal judge into custody, without proper authorization, seems to constitute "worth it" for the feds to take action.

(65,010 posts)But, the feds probably considered them gadflies, not a real threat. Actually laying hands on an officer of the court goes beyond acting tough and threatening.
The feds would have dropped him like a bag of dirt.

(2,382 posts)It smells like decomposing brain cells. These low-wattage intellects are SO desperate for some drama in their dreary double-wide lives that they invent absurdly implausible scenarios in which they can play hero. And the belief that laws don't apply to them is an indicator of a sociopathic personality. Just back away slowly...

(8,702 posts)It seems to me these oath keepers really hate the United States of America. They don't really see the U.S Constitution/ United States of America as something they should live by.
