Missouri Sheriffs\u2019 Constitutional Firearms Alliance<\/a><\/p>\n

Dozens of Missouri Sheriffs have united to form the\u00a0Missouri Sheriffs\u2019 Constitutional Firearms Alliance<\/a>\u00a0(MSCFA), a group dedicated to safeguarding Second Amendment rights for law-abiding citizens while promoting gun safety throughout communities across the state.<\/p>\n

Douglass County Sheriff and president of the MSCFA, Chris Degase, believes there is an agenda at the federal level to control and restrict access to firearms, a sentiment not unfamiliar to gun owners or any person paying attention, for that matter.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis alliance brings together sheriffs from across our great state who are committed to protecting not just public safety, but constitutional liberty. We believe these two goals go hand in hand. In fact, public safety cannot truly exist where the rights of the people are ignored\u2026 With the Missouri Sheriffs Constitutional Firearms Alliance, we are not only standing up for your rights\u2014we are standing in the gap between the federal government and you,\u201d Sheriff DeGase said in a recent press conference.<\/p>\n

I was fortunate enough to speak with the good Sheriff, getting to know him better and gaining an understanding of his perspective, particularly his approach to public safety while embracing liberty. In fact, Sheriff DeGase spoke candidly with me about balancing his duty to protect and serve the community without infringing on Constitutional rights, an agenda he takes pride in as an elected official who recognizes and respects the plain text of both his oath and the Second Amendment.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs sheriffs, we are the only elected law enforcement officers in the nation, directly accountable to the people we serve. And with that responsibility comes an unwavering oath\u2014to uphold and defend the Constitution, not just when it\u2019s easy, but especially when it\u2019s under pressure,\u201d Sheriff DeGase continued.<\/p>\n

Along these lines, Sheriff DeGase is not a fan of shutting down inter-agency communication and cooperation, understanding that such resources benefit the community. However, he also recognizes the very real threat to some of America\u2019s foundational freedoms, a bedrock of principles in which he is unwilling to compromise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
