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 anut with a death wish.
Jackass Alert!!!
This guy doesn’t belong in law enforcement! He rejects the Constitution he swore to protect. Like people can wait 10 – 20 minutes for help! Stupid man! Inviting law suits.
OLD C**P FROM A USLESS SHERIFF!
Eric Clapton once sang ‘I shot the sheriff’. The song could have a new meaning if this nut job tries to shoot a concealed carrier.
This is one of the stupidest yet funniest things I have heard yet. Ya do you embassile you go to prison. Where did you get your Sheriffs badge, out of a Cracker Jack box?
FIRE HIS$#%&!@*
He needs to be removed from the position.
He is there to protect and serve . I think he needs another mental evaluation to see if he is still able to carry out his duties . If he can’t pass it , remove him . If he shoots a legal carrier and the reason is not good , sue him and make his life hell , then through him in prison .
he’s gonna get surprised here in the south come on down our way jack
