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.

I’ll shoot that sheriff right thru his badge! I dare him to come near me and threaten me! Badge or no badge, a threat is a threat.
He can spend the rest of his days in federal prison!
People down need vote this man out of office as sheriff and maybe more . Could be terrorist threats to civilians in there own county behind the badge. In my opinion just saying.
Ya ya
He does realize we know how to shoot too?
F**k him. Apparently his didn’t listen to his oath. Can’t fix stupid.
So someone sworn to up hold the law plans to break it for his own pleasure? Then he should be voted out of office.
Traitor
True. But Obama did too and look how that turned out.
Hey sheriff, just try take MY GUNS!
