Ohio Sheriff to Protesters: “You shoot at the police, expect us to shoot back”

It’s disgusting to see the abuse police officers around the country are facing.

These “protesters” attack them and then cry when the police fight back!

But one Ohio sheriff has a warning for any would-be police attackers.

Sheriff Richard Jones of Butler County recently issued a statement in which he warned protesters that if they attack police, the police will shoot.

The Butler County Sheriff’s Office in Ohio issued a statement Wednesday in response to what its leader called “lawlessness in the country over the last few months directed towards police.”

“If you come to this county expecting a free pass to harm one of my men or women in uniform, keep in mind, nothing in life is free,” Sheriff Richard Jones said in a news release and on Facebook.

The statement referred to people dumping water on police in New York, bricks and frozen water bottles being thrown at police in Portland, Oregon, and people shooting at officers in Chicago.

“You shoot at the police, expect us to shoot back,” Jones said. “I will not allow my deputies or any law enforcement officer in Butler County to take the abuse I have seen over the past several months.”
