'Citizens Have a Right to Protect Themselves': GA Sheriff Explains Viral Concealed-Carry Sign

A Georgia sheriff is going viral for a warning to county visitors that residents are armed.

Harris County Sheriff Mike Jolley recently posted a sign outside the sheriff's office that reads: “Our citizens have concealed weapons. If you kill someone, we might kill you back. We have ONE jail and 356 cemeteries. Enjoy your stay!”

On "Fox & Friends," Jolley said the purpose of the sign is to let people know that many citizens in Harris County exercise their right to bear arms.

"The fact that we have one jail and so many cemeteries is just a tongue-in-cheek way of saying law enforcement can't be everywhere all the time, so citizens have a right to protect themselves," Jolley said.

Truer words have never been spoken.

Maybe this will be contagious to the rest of liberal country and especially here in MD.

What's the sheriff going to do to his faithful citizens when his bosses say "Sheriff, we're going to need you to get all the assault weapons from your county citizens, by any means necessary"???

Hope he makes the right choice.
