A sheriff in Pinellas County, Florida has a warning for anyone willing to come near him with a gun, he’s threatening them with his own.
The locally known anti-gun cop made the statements in response to open carry legislation being floated in his city. It attempts to make arming law abiding citizens easier, so that they can better defend themselves should they find their lives at risk.
How ironic that a man who fears for his own life in the presence of lawful gun ownership should resort to the very thing that he opposes — a gun — in order to protect himself.
It’s unlikely the cop thought of that before he threatened to kill the very citizens he’s employed to protect.
Cops have been put in a bad light recently for shooting at criminals when they think that their lives are in danger. It has been proven time and time again that their actions are reasonable and legal in a court of law. This man, however, may be the face of what a bad cop looks like: one who openly tries to take a citizen’s gun by threatening to use his own.

Just try, we can shoot back you know.
Read his whole statement… Quite different from the snippets quoted here. This site should be ashamed of itself, stooping to shitty clickable and out of context quotes.
He needs to be replaced!
This traitor Will soon be voted out of a job.
Seriously, have you not seen blue privilege in action. Worst he will get is paid vacation, while they investigate themselves to determine he did nothing wrong.
This dumb$#%&!@*is the reason for the second ammendment.
Special kind of stupid.
Lick my balls
You don’t have to follow and unlawful order and you can resist an unlawful arrest up to and including the use of deadly force!
Maybe he needs to find other employment as he is not fit to be in law enforcement!
