Florida Sheriff: I'll Deputize Gun Owners To Stop Any Violent Protests That Can't be Handled

[appalachiablue]

July 2. Clay County is in NE Florida in the Jacksonville Metro area.

1. And the end of the clip teases story on brain eating amoebas.

[appalachiablue]

2. Only the finest news reported..

3. It's a real thing in the St. Johns river as well as numerous fresh water lakes and ......

streams in the US. Just google it.
Amoebas and flesh eating bacteria both inhabit our wildly polluted America. Maybe more so in the age of climate change and misuse of natural resources.
And that sheriff is a real thing too. Under investigation for corruption as we speak. Clay county just can't have nice things.

6. Yes. Well documented for many years.

[appalachiablue]

7. Relatives in JAX have talked about flesh eating bacteria,

how bad it is esp. for St John's. I didn't connect it to brain eating amoebas, whatev.

There's so much pollution in that state and other places it's a wonder anything we consider wildlife can survive. It's fast catching up to humans as well.

17. i used to water-ski in the St Johns

must have gotten worse since the (35 years ago)

[lonely bird]

12. Well, that explains the sheriff's idea

[blm]

4. And what does the insurance company think about that?

5. Married Sheriff has mistress arrested for harassment. Now desperate for votes. News

at 11.
That's it in a nutshell, so he's trying to rally the rubes. Might work around here .

13. No wonder it's laid on so thick; maybe he can get

some more airtime from this to distract, sad.

15. The mistress was interviewed on one of the Jax stations a few days ago. She seemed pretty

normal to me, somewhat regretful. Obviously I don't know all the details nor is it my business, since I am one county away. But imo, this sheriff is a sleazeball with a bunch of bad history ...trying to distract. Gosh....hmmmmm...trying to think of who else does that.

[appalachiablue]

16. He seems desperate. It's unfortunate

for his wife, maybe the mistress and the public that has to be exposed to this personal sleaze and bravado attempt.

8. WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG WITH THIS INSANE IDEA.

[llashram]

9. and if any slave tries to escape

I will tell my massa.

[Wbrady10]

10. Talk about...

a motley crew!

[dreamland]

11. Great. Now shootings will be legal by deputization.

I can see them deputize after the shooting.

[Nitram]

14. A sheriff that can't handle protests should be fired. A sheriff who gives citizens permission to

shoot violent protestors would be fired.
