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.

Time to recall the sheriff.
Heaven help you
Just by saying something stupid like this might have given you a death sentence. Now if anyone shoots your$#%&!@*all they had to say was you threatened them and you was scared for your life. This is proof of what you are capable of.
Jail this bastards
YOU IDIOT YOU WILL FIND YOURSELF GOING TO PRISON, SO YOU BETTER THINK TWICE, YOU NEED TO RETIRE OR YOU JUST MIGHT FIND YOURSELF IN A BODY BAG OR PRISON.
Carol is absolutely right
Sounds like a death threat to me lock him up
He has a lot of stupid in him. Fire this moron before something happens that doesn’t need to.
Guess he thinks the second amendment was written just for him. All carriers in this county need to familiarize themselves with this guy’s photo so as to get the draw on him.
I read your article and take from it that a man was involved in a passionate conversation and portions of his words were taken. He may not be the best spoken person.
I believe there is much more to the story and once discovered, isn’t much of a headlines grabber.
