I just got back from the board of supervisors meeting of which they unanimously voted to declare that Yavapai County will become Arizona's third 2nd Amendment sanctuary. Yavapai County now joins both Mohave and La Paz counties in that declaration. Apache County is also considering this resolution, if they haven't declared it already.
This was the second of two meetings. Both meetings were packed with 2nd Amendment supporters. Although the first meeting drew more of a crowd. I attended both meetings. I believe that the first meeting is what convinced them to declare Yavapai County as a 2nd Amendment sanctuary instead of a watered down proposal. The second meeting was for the final vote.
By declaring sanctuary county status sends a strong message to state and federal legislators of the county's commitment to uphold the 2nd Amendment rights of its residents. The overwhelming majority of those who had a chance to speak because of time constraints spoke out against proposed "red flag" laws at the state and federal level. At this meeting out of about 40 people who spoke, only 3 were opposed to both measures. At the first meeting the same 3 spoke against us, out of about 100 who had a chance to speak.
