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.

Sounds like a threat to americans!
Now this is one dumb$#%&!@*cop.
Fuckin B******t!
I hope he likes the prisons down there! That is exactly where he will be, the rest of his life if he murders a legal CC citizen!
Misconstrued I am sure. A cop is killed every 53 yours. I do not blame him. Does not say he will kill any one, he will be ready to pull his own. It is a lot different for a trained officer to carry a gun than a untrained citizen. A person that has not had experience may be to easy with the gun.
Should be removed from office and his gun rights taken away until he has a different view on things
Is this because of all the police officers being shot? You need to be able to tell the true Americans from the terroists and the lawless, so wake up and dont become an$#%&!@*to everybody, they may be saving your life some day .if you are a gun control idiot i agree with the previous person.
Sounds like he is trying to get his deputies killed.
He has no place in law enforcement!
none !
If this is anywhere even close to being accurate and he is the professions own worst enemy. Sanctimonious political hang him kisses up to the administration. Since he’s an elected official I seriously doubt he is very much police training. He certainly does not exhibit anything impressive. I’m surprised he hasn’t had his$#%&!@*handed to him already. It’ll probably happen.
