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.

Oh so it’s ok for him to carry? Douchebag Sheriff!
Better brush up on the use of deadly force! We are legal concealed carry Americans and we know how to engage a threat!
Then he should be fired. As this threat violates his oath of office.
Well he better be a better shot then me!
Now people talk about loons that have no business in law enforcement . Well just take a look at this idiot!!! How was he ever hired?? Get him out he is a danger to citizens.!
Somebody take that s*** out
Fucking libtards, that kind of mind set will get his own officers killed. The police are Not our masters. If they shoot at me I will be shooting back.
This idiot should lose his job! He sounds unstable to me. He has no business in Law Enforcement.
That is why we need to protect ourselves, the eliteism.
Funny how he back peddles ! Hypocrites!!
