Ken Anderson guessed the answer to the question about Barney breaking the law
in the episode "Barney Runs For Sheriff". Several times in that episode Barney
violated the Hatch Act. The Hatch Act of 1939 sets out several things that
federal employees are not allowed to do. The Hatch Act also applies to state
law enforcement, since state law enforcement takes federal money. Specifically
Barney could not:
1. Campaign while in uniform.
2. Solicit donations from citizens that he had control over.
3. Campaign while on duty.
4. Finally he could not display an election poster in the courthouse, which is
government property.
You would have thought Andy would have pointed out some of these law violations.
Orville Hendricks - Still selling butter and eggs. I never break the law. I
have never thrown one of my laying hens at Martha. It is too hard on the hen.
