A national group of sheriffs that claims the top law enforcers in American counties are not bound by federal law has successfully spread its doctrine to dozens of states in recent years.

What about the FBI and the airforce bombing black neighborhoods in 1985? Like literally bombing them. Was that the kind of top down governance you want?

No, what makes you think I want that kind of governance?

I have already said Good Things are good and Bad Things are bad.

Fascist sheriffs: Bad
Bombing the MOVE building: Bad

What in the phrase

it's what that government does.

reads in any way as support for Philadelphia pigs bombing people?

If anything it reads to me as firmly against that sort of thing.
