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.

Talking like that will not get you no where in life but 6ft under ground.
This kinda person as law enforcement absolutely disgusts me you took an oath to uphold the law not go after law abiding citizens
Stupid$#%&!@*MFer!!!! Our right to bear arms is to protect ourselves from pieces of s*** like you!!
Coward with a badge. Ego maniac. Just another POS that gives policemen a bad name.
How would he know it if the gun is concealed?
He should keep in mind that we shoot back!
Newell Dimen I agree with you he is unfit but the only person who can lawfully remove him without federal charges is the corner of that county.
And without the county commissioners and public backing him with a petition I don’t see it happening.
He just wrote his own Go to Jail ticket, and a Multi Million Lawsuit for his County! If I were a County Commissioner in that County, I’d be looking to Replace that fool ASAP, because he’ now become a Liability!
He thinks he is the law… Needs to be demoted to a meter maid…
Fucking jerk. Great attitude for a cop.
