Sheriff: "Call us if the guy down the street says he hates the government"

[Magnus]

From the Palm Beach Post:

 

Florida House and Senate budget leaders have awarded Palm Beach
County Sheriff Ric Bradshaw $1 million for a new violence prevention
unit aimed at preventing tragedies like those in Newtown, Conn., and
Aurora, Colo., from occurring on his turf.

Bradshaw plans to use
the extra $1 million to launch “prevention intervention” units featuring
specially trained deputies, mental health professionals and
caseworkers. The teams will respond to citizen phone calls to a 24-hour
hotline with a knock on the door and a referral to services, if needed.

...

“We want people to call us if the guy down the street says he hates the
government, hates the mayor and he’s gonna shoot him,” Bradshaw said.
“What does it hurt to have somebody knock on a door and ask, ‘Hey, is
everything OK?’ ”

 

Yeah, people who hate the government LOVE IT when armed government agents knock on your door because an informant named names. 

This will end well, I'm sure of it.

At least I am able to laugh at how silly government is at times now. Thanks for the share though, hopefully something like this will not happen to me.
