A Florida police chief on Monday encouraged residents to open fire on violent looters who try to enter their homes. “I would tell them, if you value your life, they probably shouldn’t do that in Polk County. Because the people of Polk County like guns, they have guns, I encourage them to own guns, and they’re going to be in their homes tonight with their guns loaded,” Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd told reporters during a news briefing.

Just following Vice-President Biden's advice to shoot them with a "shotgun through the door."

And with that, they won’t have to shoot anyone because nobody will loot.

And the two old guys behind him were proudly laughing in agreement with the sheriff. You can tell those guys have some ganes too.

Grady Judd is America’s Sheriff. President Trump should put him in charge of restoring order and the country would be under control by Friday, assuming he waits until morning to do it.

Armed and ready. I don't need encouragement. But they'd never make it out here. Everybody before me would get their turn first.

No need to urge around here.
I hope that these anarchists try to move out into my piece of suburbia. They will NOT like it.

Talking about Biden, while in a Black Church today, he said that the nation’s police should be retrained to shoot suspects in their legs, rather than center mass.

Most are feral males. I say shoot a little farther up, say the end of the front torso, so it has life-long consequences.

If I had a place of business, I would sleep there and have my arsenal with me. You come in, I feel threaten and I will protect myself. Why is a business any different from a home......

Grady Judd is known locally as somewhat of a 'showboater' but, the man means what he says.

Same with me 10. Mrs G2P remarked yesterday how grateful she was that we are hundreds of miles from any of the purposely started race riots and grateful we even have an NVG scope.

I am glad that I live in a rural county. It is quiet and people of all races treat each other with respect If antifa and it's other cohorts show up here they will receive a warm welcome. Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha!

Quite the Sheriff this Grady guy.
A long time ago, my former neighbor who was a Denver Policeman told me if an intruder should ever attempt to break in to my home in the middle of the night, don't wait until he is standing at your bedroom door before taking aim at him. If necessary shoot earlier. If he staggers back outside and collapses, drag the body back inside before the first police car arrives.

Sherriff Grady... asked by the press why his deputies shot a cop and k-9 cop killer 68 times, he said "Well I guess that's all the rounds we had."
It happened back in 2006. I remember when it happened. It was ruled a justified shooting by the DOJ.

My parents live in Polk County. I just happen to be down there now. We drove past a small demonstration Sunday afternoon. Word is that as soon as it started to get rowdy the Sherriff broke it up. He also had a beefed up presence outside of the local mall lest any thugs get any wrong ideas. Dad says this sherriff doesn't put up with any nonsense. This country needs more like him.

I retired from Maine to Polk County, Florida for the simple reason that if I was forced to defend myself and my family with a firearm, Sheriff Grady Judd would have my back. He once made a statement that if you were subject to a Home Invasion, you should put enough bullets in the perp that he read a newspaper through him. Note: Polk County is a 2A Sanctuary County.

Thanks anyway but most of us do not need encouragement. Magazines are fully loaded and every room has weapons within reach. In fact, there is a little anticipation afoot.

I find only a little comfort in the fact that my son and his wife are teaching my 12 year old granddaughter how to hold, load, aim and shoot a weapon. They are doing what they must to keep her safe, I suppose. It is better to know than to not know. The three older boys know martial arts; that helps everyone.

I personally have no problems with shooting looters or anyone who threatens you with harm. Further, I would let them lie in their own blood until they bled out. I have no responsibility for their well being.

There needs to be a federal law created that peaceful protest is encouraged.
All back packs and purses WILL BE CONFISCATED. There will be a point of entry to the protest. All attendees WILL BE SRARCHED. NO FACE COVERING OF ANY SORT WILL BE TOLERATED. There needs to be a law.
The INSTANT anyone starts shouting or behaving aggressively it should be an INSTANT SHOOT TO KILL.
Business owners and home owners should be allowed to SHOOT TO KILL if anyone is on their property or in their property uninvited or behaving aggressively. I don't care the sex OR the age of the perpetrators. 5 or 55 is of no concern to me. They drag their brats along as shields or photo props.

Thuggery, vandalism, rioting, and looting can be hazardous to your health, an occupational health.

Fake headline. He did not encourage residents to shoot looters. He encouraged residents to own guns and to keep them loaded. In most cases, knowledge that your intended victim is armed and ready prevents your intended victim from ever having to use his gun.

#25 Posted: Shoot [an intruder as soon as he enters your home]. "If he staggers back outside and collapses, drag the body back inside before the first police car arrives." I received the same advice from my own police here in PA. Have had a license to carry for years, but only just began to carry. Not taking chances. The anarchists are responsible for multiple murders this week, all in the name of justice. Guess I am missing something here! If they get near me, they'll be missing a whole lot more!

#33 - My Dad taught my sisters and I how to shoot when we reached 12. We also had regular practice. He was LAPD and had to qualify every two months. He took all three of us to the range and when he was done we all got some practice too. Shortly before our wedding my Dad took TK aside and said, "You know, she knows how to shoot. She can protect herself." TK's response, "Yes, sir. Its one of the things I love about her!" Twelve years old is the perfect age to learn how to handle firearms. It then becomes a life-long skill. When TK was gone for four days during the Rodney King riot, he could confidently do his job because he knew I could handle protecting our home.
To this day, my favorite cologne on a man is Hoppe's #9.

Finally, there is a police chief willing and courageous enough to fulfill his oath to protect life and property! If all the theft we see now in this senseless rioting had been stopped at the beginning by responsible public officials, none of the ensuing thefts, deaths & mayhem would have occured. The dumbed down snowflakes are but tools now for the always radical lefties' anarchy.
