Sheriff Just Threatened Something HUGE If The Obama Admin Tries To Take His Guns “No
Watch: This Sheriff Just Threatened Something HUGE If The Obama Admin Tries To Take His Guns
“No question about it.”
Christopher Agee B. Christopher Agee — September 2, 2014
“If they attempt to do that, it will be an all-out civil war,” he concluded. “No question about it.”
In light of recent mass shootings – primarily in so-called ‘gun-free zones’ – that have left dozens dead and even more injured, Americans have become increasingly divided regarding how such tragedies might be avoided in the future.
While some have concluded that stricter gun control laws would keep citizens safe by limiting legal access to firearms, plenty of others recognize that a well-armed populace can act as a deterrent to would-be violent criminals.
As federal authorities consider imposing legislation that would make the ownership of certain weapons illegal, local law enforcement officials are speaking out against such proposals. One such voice is Mike Lewis, who serves as sheriff of Wicomico County, Md.
During a recent interview, he firmly denounced the federal government’s intrusion into his constituents’ ability to own and carry legally owned weapons.
“I’ve been holding a gun in my hand since I was probably old enough to walk,” he said, explaining that he never leaves home without a firearm.
Many in the hunting community lead a similar lifestyle, he explained.
“Our guns hurt no one, literally no one, if they’re left alone,” he said.
While he conceded that a gun in the hand of a “bad person” could lead to trouble, he said that the best way to deal with that potential threat is to make sure convicted felons are not allowed to own such weapons.
“But we do not need to strip law-abiding citizens of their Second Amendment right to bear arms,” he said. “That I get upset over; I really do.”
In response to the possibility that D.C. legislators will impose gun control in his neck of the woods, Lewis had some definitive words.
He said that he made a “vow and commitment” that as long as he holds his current position, he “will not allow the federal government to come in here and strip [his] citizens of their right to bear arms.”
Should such an effort make its way into his county, he predicts a large-scale rebellion.
“If they attempt to do that, it will be an all-out civil war,” he concluded. “No question about it.”
