Now THAT is a good sheriff!
You just know this could only happen in the South! God bless us!
Sheriff Chuck Wright of Spartanburg County, South Carolina is one of those rare law enforcement individuals that gets it. He is telling the citizens of his county to get their concealed weapons permits and carry at all times. He made these remarks at a news conference after a woman was attacked in Milliken Park. Here’s the story ( Bold emphasis mine);
SPARTANBURG COUNTY, S.C. — The Spartanburg County Sheriff is known for speaking his mind, and at a news conference on Monday, he didn’t hold back his anger and frustration after a woman was attacked in a park over the weekend.
Investigators said 46-year-old Walter Lance grabbed a woman who was walking her dog in Milliken Park on Sunday afternoon. They said Lance choked the woman, made her take off her clothing and tried to rape her. (Full Story)
Lance is in custody and was denied bond on Monday.
Sheriff Chuck Wright opened his news conference by saying, “Our form of justice is not making it,” and he said, “I’m really aggravated.”
He said, “Carry a concealed weapon. That’ll fix it.”
Wright said Lance had been charged numerous times with crimes again women, and other crimes such as resisting arrest and escape. Wright said Lance had been on probation for a federal gun charge.

Thanks for the link.
My personal opinion is that the Second Amendment IS my concealed carry permit. No further documentation necessary.
