If a man would compromise his principles over hurt feelings, he's too dangerous to entrust in a position of power. The Sheriff needs to account for what he said, not for what rumor says he might say. My suggestion would be to start a dialog with him.
UPDATE: According to the Marion County Clerk, Sheriff Wolenhaupt has submitted a letter to the county board stating that he has reconsidered his position, and asking that the resolution be placed back on the agenda. I commend the sheriff for his willingness to see reason, and now have some hope that he will reexamine the issue of concealed carry for us "regular Joes," with the same openness of mind.
