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.

Conceal carry isn’t allowed in banks so that should eliminate your problem.
He might be a little out numbered in the long run.
Soooo, basically, he’s going to kill you for protecting yourself from someone trying to kill you????
A Sheriff is a Politician, they are elected. They can’t be fired, it would take a recall and special election to get rid of him.
Pull a gun on me, and I will kill you with mine. I don’t care if you’re a cop or not. Does this idiot think he’s immune to death or something?Never pull a gun without using it.
He should be fired!
If he were in trouble in a fight he would rethink that
So I guess this sheriff is an enemy of the state. He probably violated his oath of office. Should be grounds to have him removed.
The second amendment is an inconvenient truth
See you next election jerkoff.
