A Florida sheriff recommended homeowners shoot any looters who attempt to break into their homes during a press briefing Monday.

“I would tell them, if you value your life, they probably shouldn’t do that in Polk County," Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd said, according to Fox 13 Tampa Bay. “Because the people of Polk County like guns, they have guns, I encourage them to own guns, and they’re going to be in their homes tonight with their guns loaded.”

“And if you try to break into their homes to steal, to set fires, I’m highly recommending they blow you back out of the house with their guns. So, leave the community alone.”
