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.

He needs a different job
Please remove this public servant from office.He feels that his opinion trumps the constitution of this great country.I wonder who he follows.Reminds me of someone in Washington who feels his will is greater than the law of the land.
Shoot me and you better hope you kill me
What and Idiot
If he’s the sheriff, he was elected. If he was elected, he can be recalled.
They should show the interview. If you read the entire article it sounds as if the headline is inaccurate. Which surprises me as everything on the Internet is true and accurate
That is a total idiot.
No different if one of us publicly threatened police officers.
If i am carrying my weapon legally and he pulls his weapon to shoot me ,there will be another funeral and it wont be mine!
Black boot idiot….
Past time to think Education and Defend the Constitution..
Your FIRED….
