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 should LOOSE his job. Legal c and c is just that. Legal! Would he shoot criminals? No he is for them.
You better not miss….
Unconstitutional….. you need to look up the words”SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED UPON” must be a treasonous fool and more of the same supporter….. please next election vote him out!! Just DEPLORABLE ME…… schooling an ungrateful sheriff!!
Do they have copy of a hand giving the middle finger to some one
Go for it, but if you wait till you find out that I have a concealed gun then you won’t have the chance to shoot me, think about it sir.
When is this$#%&!@*up for reelection? Now I see why St Pete has gotten so bad! Get rid of him! Tike to tar and feather these idiots!
As I posted before, i will shoot him in the head if he gets within 10 feet of me. He has threatened my life so I, in fear of my life can protect myself and I will be “standing my ground” from a terrorist who threatened me to force me to give him his way.
I live in Port Richey if he needs to know. Let’s see how the courts think about the Second Amendment, Corrupt LEOs, the Stand Your Ground Law here in FL and MY RIGHT as a CITIZEN to do as the cops do and shoot anyone who I think MAY be a threat to me. Are cops more important than CITIZENs? Someone let me know if he needs my address…er…they know who I am… Good LEOs should have the respect of every human being in their jurisdiction and beyond. Bad cops should be challenged and eliminated as a threat.
Eat a$#%&!@*traitor
Not Oathkeeper material!!!
If this$#%&!@*swore an oath, he keeps it. Riddle me this, if you hate guns, then….WHY IN THE HELL DID YOU BECOME A LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICER
