Be Serious — This Didn't "Divide the Internet."

It was already divided. Florida Sheriff's Advice to Shoot Home Invaders Divides Internet.

This is a story from a few days back, when the Sheriff of Santa Rosa County, Florida, Bob Johnson, said that you should shoot people breaking into your home.

"If someone's breaking into your house, you're more than welcome to shoot them in Santa Rosa County. We prefer that you do, actually," Sheriff Johnson said.

The gun-hating-Left had kittens.

As one of the commenters noted, "We should just have a cop in every home" in case of break in.

Another comment brought up a question I always have under these conditions: What percentage of the people who are outraged at the idea that you should defend yourself, were the same people who were calling for the elimination, or defunding, of police two years ago?

And as I have noted elsewhere, that effort to vilify and defund the police has had negative impacts on 911 response times. And those response time were never zero.

Here is my original post on the Sheriff, and his thoughts on self-defense.
