"Adherents to the constitutional sheriff movement consider the federal government a grave threat to U.S. citizens,"reported."They argue that local law enforcement is a higher authority, with the power to countermand the decisions of legislatures, courts, and presidents." Whitehead, Darrel Schenck, Adam Davis, Tim Kennedy, and Ryan Morris are tapping into a lucrative business opportunity that likely wouldn't exist if U.S. police officers were adequately prepared during their initial job training,reported. The lessons promoted in their private courses, meanwhile, might be less dangerous for civilians if states had more funding to set standards and provide oversight.

State-based oversight institutions, often called Peace Officer Standards and Training agencies, set requirements for police training, such as the types of classes and minimum teaching hours that officers must complete.
