Florida Sheriff will deputize all "lawful gun owners"
 

The Sheriff of Clay County, FL, said he will "deputize every lawful gun owner" in his county to confront lawlessness and violent protests if need be.

This is what needs to happen across the country.

Sheriff to 'deputize lawful gun owners' to confront 'lawlessness' | Daily Mail Online

O. K.
 

Judging only from the post and picture (did not go to the story), seems like a sheriff that cares about the safety and security of the citizens under his protection. The picture shows me an officer and gentleman with a great smile. Someone I would probably like if I ever met him.
As to the .54 on the hip, unless you're pretty big, you might walk a little lopsided. Oh, and let me know if you're going to shoot. I want to put my fingers in my ears cause them things go BANG real loud.

Stay safe. Stay well. Peace!

Thank you Mr. Daniels. A man doing his job and a man who cares about citizens. Stay safe out there.

Perhaps he wouldn't want some of us. He'd have a Posse of Barney Fifes. More self inflicted wounds than anything else. But no mass shootings since we would only have one bullet each.

sheriff of Polk county said a similar thing. and that threat will keep the cowardly rioters away.

Political stunt. That knuckle head is under investigation by FDLE. Dope.

Glad he thinks his people should be protected.

True, we'll see what happens

Criminal investigation into Clay County Sheriff's dealings now in hands of prosecutors | firstcoastnews.com

Agreed ... best if those you mention self-select out and let the rest of us take care of it

"Daniels also is under investigation by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, or FDLE, after his former employer, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, announced last year that he'd had an affair with a co-worker when he was running its jails.

Daniels, who is married, was accused of later having the woman falsely arrested."



Having affair with a co-woker while being married is one thing, but then having the girlfriend falsely arrested?


That's just COLD. LOL

Nuts. Real men don't need guns. They need a healthy ego.

No. Keep your finger off the trigger.

Deputizing gun owners
 

Looks like we are back to the Old West of the late 1800's. I thought we were better than that as a country, but I guess not. Maybe they can have another gunfight at the O.K. Corral. Where are Henry Fonda and Burt Lancaster when we need them?

That's great! He is a smart man.

.54 caliber???? Possibly .45, Just asking???

Yep, smart sheriffs. The cowards only riot and loot in areas where people run for cover and give them full reign. None of them have the guts to stand up when confronted. Its still amazing to me when I see violent riots and when one of them gets hurt, everyone is screaming, “call 911”. Morons.

back to the Wild West

A .45 & a 9mm

I'm in
 

exactly

😂 Thanks for the laugh. Sure need it these days!

But seriously, we do not need procedurally untrained vigilantes out there. Imagine the lawsuits. Do I hear “call Dan Newlin”?

Back to the Wild West

My kind of Sheriff! :bigbow:

Saddle up, pardners!! Let's go get 'em......and my hubby'll and his ilk will be leadin' the pack!!! These old ex-military guys are itchin' to put an end to this crapola!

Facts don't fit agenda's...........facts jus get in the way.

.454 Casull?

Get real.

Waiting to be deputized. I need something to do.

Please provide source.

Most anti gunners view of guns and their owners is limited to what they see in the movies or their favorite biased news source.

They have no idea about the average responsible gun owner.

The experience they have. The rules by which they live for safety first.
The millions of responsible gun owners shooting millions and millions of rounds daily/weekly/monthly.....without incident.

Nahh....I forgot the anti gunners would not want to know about that.

Instead they prefer to paint the picture of a lawless bunch of old farts who have no idea what they are doing.

In the event of an emergency requiring lawful gun owners to respond the anti gunners will be damn glad we are here......in silence of course.

Funny how the message of the sheriff was glossed over, by some, to be replaced on an attack on his character.

Terrifying!

Look to YouTube and search "home invasions"...
Then come back and tell me what's "terrifying". Some of the most violent crimes imaginable.

Steve

No, it only takes 1 crazy old fart who is giving the legal status to kill that would make the others regret getting involved. Not to mention liability.. the lawsuits .. insane idea

There is a .54 caliber flintlock pistol

I'm hoping you were correct and that you own a .54 cal muzzleloader. However, if you meant .45 then that concerns me because it may be a case of Dyslexia. I wouldn't want you erroneously reversing the position of the barrel. I strongly suggest we leave our guns at home, including my 10, and hire a bunch of social workers to protect us.

The home invasion in The Villages when the Village of LaBelle was new, never heard all the facts or any conclusion, or even if the perpetrators were caught. It was August 2016 in Harlow Villas, a 64 year old woman answered the door, two fellas in dress clothes and ties and one holding a clipboard rushed in. They took her dog to the garage and killed it and stole some things, one being a gun which they knew exactly where the gun was kept. This made me think they had been there before and maybe were workers on a job. Which is why it's always good to be careful about the contractors you hire. There is still a ten page thread on this website, no news clippings anymore. I was wondering it was ever resolved.

I looked back at the thread, and I made a comment that the newly installed cameras at LaBelle gate would be useful in catching them, and someone posted that you can get into LaBelle without going through the gate, but they never said how. I have golfing friend that lives in LaBelle and from I see, the gate is the only way to get a car into LaBelle, unless you drive across a golf course.

Now, that I look up this story, LaBelle has had it's share of problems. In July of 2018 it was where the LaBelle CC bandit was holdup at his girlfriend's parents home, and the Sumter Deputies used a tank to bust open the window and then perpetrator took off in a car through the closed garage door, and eventually was caught on Micro-Racetrack Rd. This just goes to show, violent crime can happen anywhere.

I guess the Rev. Jeremiah Wright would call that the "chickens coming home to roost". My heart breaks for her.

Well if the citizens don't do nothing the Villages will just become another CHOP zone. We,ve all see where they are charging a home owners who protect Their own life and property.

A yearlong investigation of Clay County Sheriff Darryl Daniels may be drawing to a close.

First Coast News has learned from multiple law enforcement sources that the Florida Department of Law Enforcement has completed its initial report into misconduct allegations against Clay's top cop. The report is now in the possession of the 4th District State Attorney’s Office, which must review and make recommendations, an FDLE spokesperson confirmed.

AR 15 is not an assault rifle. It is a defense rifle.

When bad men come to your door.......and there is none to call......
