The board has officially adopted the resolution to make our home a sanctuary county. This was a long and exhausting process that required real grit from everyone involved. Keep watching the local meetings because we have to ensure these protections remain firmly in place.

SIBLEY COUNTY RESIDENTS

(When signing, in the COMMENTS section, please include your township or city.)

We believe our Founding Fathers were incredibly wise to codify our God given right to self-defense in the Bill of Rights as the Second Amendment.

Our Second Amendment rights are being strongly threatened. Nearly 1200 counties across the United States, including seventeen thus far in Minnesota, have already adopted laws or resolutions that seek to prohibit or impede the enforcement of certain gun control measures that would violate the Second Amendment, such as universal background checks and red flag laws and bans on semi-automatic firearms.

Sibley County residents are respectfully urging the Sibley County Board of Commissioners to adopt language that would make its jurisdiction a Pro-Second Amendment Dedicated County, further demonstrating their commitment to protecting the Constitutional Rights of Sibley County residents.

The path forward is long and honestly it wears on you after a while. We are pushing toward the 500 mark because the board needs to see that we are not going away quietly. Please take a moment to ask your neighbors to sign so we can get this number over that hurdle.

If there was no threats on the 2nd amendment, we would not be seeking this vote...but there are, as you know. I may never own a gun but I don't want to take away that Constitutional right of my neighbors and friends. To put it another way, if there were threats against Masons meeting or for church members to attend church, we'd be seeking you to vote to make Sibley County a "right of the people peaceably to assemble" sanctuary county. I may never be a Mason (I go to church) but I never want to take away that Constitutional right of my neighbors and friends. Respectfully, Mark Santelman City of Winthrop 507-217-1554

Im for back ground checks or gun safety test to purchase a guy but I can not allow the ban of a certain firearm that is a slippery slope. Into taking them away entirely. Our goal shouldn't be getting people to not have them it should be to have responsible gun owners. Scott county.

Our constitutional rights needs to be left alone by the government.... They need to stop overstepping their boundaries... U mess with one of our constitutional rights that just opens the door to the next one and then another.

This Constitutional Right to me is the most important one. Should we erode it, all of our other Constitutional Rights will erode along with it. We shall not allow this to happen on our watch.

I ask you to continue to fight for our 2nd amendment rights, it clearly states in the constitution that we have the right to bear arms. Law abiding citizens are not the problem in America. It is the guns on the street that arrive there through black markets. Fight the good fight, but at the right angles.
