By now you’re well aware of many governors who are advising citizens to limit the size of their Thanksgiving gatherings. Some politicians aren’t limiting their comments to recommendations, but are flat-out threatening legal trouble for anybody violating their edicts. One such politician is New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo:
Thanksgiving is a week away.
LARGE INDOOR DINNERS will spread COVID.
Limit Thanksgiving to your immediate household.
Gatherings over 10 people are not permitted.
Spread thanks, not COVID.

This is a great statement:
“The sheriff’s office considers its citizens’ private residences sacrosanct and as always will respect this.”
Bravo!
God bless Constitutionally minded sheriffs.

Other politicians should take a lesson from this.
