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.

Say what? Really?
You threaten physical harm to others while you are armed…Really?… You should be fired immediately…
I’d be careful if I was this man go around threatening legal gun owners because he just might find himself on the other side of the barrel
Isn’t it illegal to threaten to murder people?
Omg!!!!! SO ….the kool-aid drinkers have arrived!
He’s sworn to uphold the constitution not his political beliefs.
Now we are advocating carrying rounds to penetrate cop body armor cause some half wit Elected Sheriff comes out with some backwars$#%&!@* Im leo and love the fact that there are armed citizens around me! Let cut the us against the cops mentality. You’re falling into the trap the media has set. They think gun owners are paranoid, skitzos, that are gullible enough to react as such. Dont you think after 2 or 3 cop shootings happen under the circumstances you are painting, the bigger push to unarm our lawful carrying citizens will happen. Gun owners arent sheep, so dont act like it! JMHO.
Class action lawsuit against the Dept and county by its taxpayers will shut that libtard traitor of a Sheriff down .
Go ahead citizens have more guns
