East Texas police chief urges residents to arm themselves (GRAPHIC WARNING)


My apologies, but since it doesn't look like the chief has any eyes (or soul) a graphic warning seems advisable.

An East Texas police chief is urging residents to arm themselves against terrorists after listening to President Barack Obama's Sunday night address to the nation.

"And I didn't find his words encouraging at all," Hughes Springs Police Chief Randy Kennedy said in a video he posted on Facebook Sunday night. "As far as the homeland is concerned, here within the United States of America, he has no effective plan, apparently. ... I'm asking you to help me and our fellow law enforcement officers by arming yourselves."

The chief asks residents to apply for concealed handgun permits and stand ready to help him or other officers in the event that violence like the kind that recently affected San Bernardino, California, pierces the Pine Curtain.

About midway through his video, Kennedy said, “I know that there are a lot of law-abiding gun owners out there, and nobody who is a legal gun-owner has ever wanted to harm or kill anyone. But I know that we do not seek to harm or kill anyone, but nor are we gonna allow anyone to seek us out and kill us or do harm to our families.”

With the missing eyebrows and eyelashes, the beety eyes, pale skin and it looks like the only hair on his face growing between where the eyebrows should be I was leaning more towards him being a zombie. That is not a glamour shot.
