Video of Deputy Sheriff of Davidson County NC Goes Viral Again
"I'M NOT GOING TO ENFORCE AN UNCONSTITUTIONAL LAW!"
IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT THIS VIDEO IS 4 YEARS OLD AND WENT VIRAL IN 2020. THIS VERSION WAS CLIPPED BY PAUL FLEURET @ABSOLUTE1776 ON TELEGRAM, CUTTING-OUT THE PART IN WHICH WE HEAR THAT TRIPP KESTER WAS REFERRING TO THE STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA'S INTENT TO PASS GUN LAWS, WHICH HE CONSIDERED TO BE UNCONSTITUTIONAL.
IT WAS DECEPTIVELY-EDITED AND POSTED MISLEADINGLY WITHIN THE CONTEXT OF THE CURRENT SITUATION IN WESTERN NORTH CAROLINA AND SHARED BY PAUL FLEURET AND LIKELY OTHERS.
HIS SPEECH IS PART OF A MOVEMENT WITHIN COUNTIES OF SEVERAL STATES THAT HAVE BEEN REBELLING AGAINST NEW STATE GUN CONTROL LAWS – INCLUDING "RED FLAG" LAWS, SUPPORTED BY DONALD TRUMP.
IN 2020, TRIPP KESTER WAS THE DEPUTY SHERIFF OF DAVIDSON COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA. IN 2022, HE RAN FOR ELECTION TO THE DAVIDSON COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS AND HE DOES NOT APPEAR TO HAVE WON A SEAT. HE NO LONGER APPEARS TO BE AT THE DAVIDSON COUNTY SHERIFF'S DEPT.
TRIPP KESTER DOES HAVE A FACEBOOK ACCOUNT. THE "ABOUT" FIELDS ARE EMPTY. I WAS DE-PLATFORMED BY FACEBOOK FOR NO REASON IN FEBRUARY 2021, SO I CAN'T DIG DEEPER, THERE.
A FRIEND SHARED THIS VIDEO WITH ME, NOT KNOWING THE FULL STORY OF THIS CLIP AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT'S EVEN HAPPENING IN MY OWN CITY!
I'VE NO WATER, POWER OR INTERNET FOR 10 DAYS AND NO PHONE SERVICES FOR THE FIRST 4 OF THESE DAYS. IT IS HARD TO DO THIS JOB, UNDER ALL OF THE ABOVE CIRCUMSTANCES.
REGARDLESS, TRIPP KESTER'S WORDS FROM 4 YEARS AGO REMAIN AS TRUE AS EVER, WHETHER RELATED TO THE 2ND AMENDMENT OR ANY OTHER CONSTITUTIONAL RIGHTS.

TRANSCRIPT
Sheriff Tripp Kester of Davidson County, NC: …our God-given rights. And it says, “when government becomes destructive to these ends”, meaning, when they go above and beyond trying to secure our liberties and trying to take them, it's the right of the people to alter or abolish that government, either by voting or, ultimately, God forbid, to use our Second Amendment Rights to protect ourselves from tyranny.
And I'm just asking all of y'all to unanimously join our sister counties of Wilkes, Surrey, Stokes, Lincoln, and Cherokee, and get on board with this thing and publicly demonstrate to us that you're willing to uphold and honor the same oath I took when I put my hand on God's word and held my other hand up to him and swore that I'd give my life to defend that Constitution.
And I – and I hate, I'm not trying to be disrespectful – but regardless of what y'all do or don't do, I'm not going to enforce an unconstitutional law!

It's not only the right of citizens to abolish the government, it's their duty (according to The Declaration of Independence) "to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."
I agree, WE the People need to defend the Constitution and take our country back. The founding fathers knew this day was coming when the government no longer represented the people and gave us ways to protect ourselves.
