Waiting for SCOTUS to make it legal again. (And Trump's presence is effectively an endorsement of that.)

A lot of these small towns around me don't even have their own police force or only have a few people on staff and have to use the sheriff for backup. They're going to have a bad time if people decide they're not going to put up with it.

Yeah, but it's probably one of those sherrif departments that's managed to get a couple APCs and tanks with tax payer funds.
