‘If you kill someone, we might kill you back’: Sheriff welcomes visitors with ominous warning

An unconventional welcome sign greets visitors in western Georgia.

It stands suitably outside the Harris County Sheriff’s Office, only a stone’s throw from the Alabama border, addressing would-be criminals and warning them not to cross the locals.

“Welcome to Harris County, Georgia,” it reads, sarcastically adding: “Our citizens have concealed weapons. If you kill someone, we might kill you back. We have ONE jail and 356 cemeteries. Enjoy your stay! -Sheriff Mike Jolley.”

The sheriff said it’s his saucy way of welcoming people to his county, while, at the same time, warning them that a number of the citizens exercise their right to bear arms.

1. What a POS

[no_hypocrisy]

2. So even though south Georgia doesn't lynch anymore, they're still into vigilantism.

3. "Or we might just kill you for no good reason."

4. 356 cemeteries - they must love the gun industry.

5. The sheriff absolutely does not suffer from ED.

So stop saying that!

6. Charming.

No need there, Deputy Dawg. I'm never visiting your redneck hell-hole anyway.

7. These assholes think they are so clever?

What else does this cop brag about? The only county without schools? Did they lower the test scores to be cops.

8. Another white wing sheriff trying to attract more George Zimmermans to his area.

9. Well, he sounds like a Jolley fellow

Might as well just write, "We've got us some big ass dicks over here, and we is gonna show you mutherfuckers we ain't afraid of nobody."

10. I live in the south and I would consider that to be a warning to keep on driving

I make it a habit not to spend my money in towns like that.
