WI Sheriff Tells Residents To Get ‘In The Game’ And Arm Themselves

A Wisconsin sheriff has drawn criticism from other public officials for a radio commercial telling residents not to wait for authorities to help them and to arm themselves for protection.

According to The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Milwaukee County Sheriff David A. Clarke Jr. can be heard in the ad saying, “With officers laid off and furloughed, simply calling 911 and waiting is no longer your best option. You could beg for mercy from a violent criminal, hide under the bed, or you can fight back.”

Clarke also encourages residents to sign up for firearms training courses, saying, “I need you in the game,” and, “We’re partners now. Can I count on you?”

You're right OMalley wants to make it about 385 dollars just to get a permit to just buy a gun

So, where is our self-proclaimed hero of Wicomico on the issue?? God knows you can't depend on 911 to get a response before the Gang dominated peeps rob, rape, shoot and kill you. We need to protect ourselves. 23 minutes = avg. 911 response time. A lot can happen before they arrive!!! If you aren't the hero in your own home, you'll be the VICTIM.

I would have 3 illegal guns that are legally registered to me now if his proposed bill passes! How many of you own a Winchoke or other adjustable choke shotgun? Or any hunting rifle with a thread on muzzle brake? "Threaded Barrels" are included!

I'm going illegal to buy my ar, legal will just attract police to my house.

Amen 7:56. I never understood why anyone would want a registered weapon anyway. When (not if) hussien decalaes martial law, they will come and round up all the registered weapons and the criminals will be the only ones left who are armed.

Well, when a new rifle in a new chamber comes out in a new fashion, legal and registered is the way to go. I have a beautiful Browning rifle that I got through Wal-Mart that is just awesome out to 400 yards! Too bad it's registered and has a "threaded barrel" for the awesome adjustable muzzle brake for different loads! It's a great 3 shot deer rifle, but illegal under the new "regime" , Maybe they need to understand the taste of the rifle before the come after it!

Just got to read some of Feinstein's gun-ban bill(Examiner.com). And, guess who two of the co-sponsors are? Yup, our two traitorous Senators, Ben Cardin & Babs Mikulski.

Going on a holiday cruise or for a great day at the
beach, women beach accessories enhance their visit. Nobody wants to see someone walking around
in a bra and underwear or boxers. From picking up shells and walking along the shore to boogie boarding out in the ocean water shoes
are made to stay on the feet and keep them protected.
