Bonner County Sheriff Robert Wilcox says the United States Posse Comitatus is not his posse and not authorized to enforce laws. He states the group aims to pursue change by legal means, not by deputization, and warns he will arrest anyone who violates county or state law or takes the law into their own hands. He notes Idaho code grants him authority to deputize male citizens over 18, and affirms the right to keep but not conceal arms.
