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 an old story, I commented on the first post and got nearly 2000 reactions, I’m sure this Florida Sheriff has had a change of heart by now, if he hasn’t, we’ll read about him in the Headlines one day, he’ll either shoot a legal gun owner or someone will retire him in the worse way
City Council better get a hold on this. This guy is waiting to get shot or sued.
You people voted him in office so I suggest you vote him out just as some as possible.
Why is he still a cop?
Well he is going to have a lot of issues.
Remove this idiot
I think he needs to go
I would love for him to come take my guns!
Come to Texas cocksucker and walk around with that attitude an see how long you survive!
He’s stupid, vote him out!!!!!!!!!
