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.

WHAT A MORON !!!!
He seems to forget that they are legal gun carriers and that if he starts pulling his weapon on them they have the legal right to defend themselves.. be careful jackass there are a lot of better trained than you veterans in your county that will effectively defend themselves
This clown needs to lighten up…….find a new job pal!
Constitutional right to bare arms. Is he’s that stupid then he will find HELL sooner than later.
Not gonna work out to good for him.
He will meet his fate someday . This is a published threat . If there is any truth to this matter the man needs to be removed from being a law inforcment officer . What a shame . Our police up here in the north are promoting CC . When I got mine I had a sit down meeting with the Chief , couldn’t have been more professional and respected .
