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.

this is one sheriff that must be removed from office for he is one of the police that give officers a bad name for he totally disrespects our country and out laws.
Well you’re just a piece of s*** you need to be a damn cop somewhere and not a sheriff because you don’t know what a sheriff really is
Gonna get cops killed he starts that$#%&!@*
He should have said “aytempt to shoot”! Ha!
If he can’t shoot any better than about 95 percent of the police officers I know, he will be in a heap of trouble trying to take anyone’s guns.
He’ll shoot the people that have a right to carry a gun because he can’t get away with shooting criminals .sounds like he just want to be a big man and shoot someone .
Go ahead, I guarantee you’ll die before I do
This sheriff just might get shot when he tries this.
He wouldn’t even clear leather
Hope he gets piped first asshole
