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.

He won’t be Sheriff for long.
First time he does anything this will come back and bite him. Someone is going to sue the c**p out of Pinellas County. They had prior knowledge that he threatened to do this. They better get him off their payroll before someone owns Pinellas County.
Come on up to Wyoming$#%&!@*! We shoot back.
Obviously a left-wing nut job. Hope he doesn’t shot any blacks – that could start rioting in Florida!!!
Prayers for your family! You won’t make it!
Isn’t that murder? Sounds like this sheriff has a problem and should not be carrying a gun.
he can put it where sun doesn’t shine
Then he is one of them.
You better watch your back sheriff, your job could end soon by someone that don’t care about your law and blow your ignorant head off.
I think everything’s taken out of context but if he’s like that maybe maybe it’ll take him out
