I seldom respond on anonymous web pages.
However, let me set the record straight.
When the gentleman called me complaining about the information he had obtained from a local police officer about the Marshal refusing to sign NFA paperwork, I had a lengthy, polite conversation with him.
I asked if he had actually spoke with the Marshal (He had not.) and directed him to do so. It is always best to go to the source and solve the issue. I did not say that Marshal Voils had a good reason. Again, the complainant had not spoken to the Marshal. (And note that my advice was followed and the issue resolved.)
I also directed him with how to make a complaint on the Marshal if need be.
I did not refuse to sign any paperwork. However, it is my belief that paperwork such as this be started by the local CLEO.
If one is to use my name in a story, please be sure to use it truthfully. Again, my reason for not posting on anonymous web pages.
There are few more pro-Second Amendment law enforcement officers or Sheriff's in our Republic than I.
Should you wish to discuss this further, I may be reached at the Boone County Sheriff's Office, 765-482-1412. I will not respond to comments on the web page.
Respectfully,
Sheriff Ken Campbell
If you would have read the entire post, you would have seen that I didn't say the Marshall refused to sign. I said that the officer who answered the phone wouldn't let me speak with the Chief of Police.
Our conversation was not lengthy, it lasted two and a half minutes.
I never stated that you refused to sign, simply that you informed me that it was out of your jurisdiction. At the time I did not know that the Boone County Sheriff could also sign off on it. Either you also didn't know this or you knew but decided not to inform me.
You did inform me that I could file a complaint but I let you know that I'd rather stay on good terms and get this resolved than to **** everyone off and have to spend the extra money starting a trust.
If you feel I have wronged your name, I do apologize but I feel I stated everything as factually as possible. I posted the incident within a matter of minutes as it was still all very fresh in my memory.
I do not wish to discuss this further as the short call left enough of a bad taste in my mouth. While you are a very pro 2A sheriff, you were less than helpful and rather curt. As I stated before, I will not file any complaint or would have ever considered legal action. I will let my voting do the talking.
