Spartanburg County Sheriff Chuck Wright, angered and frustrated after a woman was attacked in the park by a known repeat offender, called on residents to arm themselves. Not merely to defend themselves but to help bring their assailants to justice. Investigators said 46-year-old Walter Lance, who has been charged numerous times with crimes against women, and other crimes such as resisting arrest and escape and was on probation, grabbed a woman who was walking her dog in Milliken Park on Sunday afternoon and choked her and made her take off her clothing and then tried to rape her.
Wright stated that, “Our form of justice is not making it.” and cited the fact that Lance has had more than 20 charges dating back to 1983. The sheriff went on to say he doesn’t believe every person needs to be kept in jail, but he said, “I don’t think this animal deserves to be out in our society, walking alongside our women.”
The good sheriff then went on to invoke the Nugent Doctrine, “I don’t like repeat offenders…, I like dead offenders”
He said several times, “I want you to get a concealed weapons permit.”
If you’re having trouble with the sheriffs position, watch this short video by the great Ted Nugent. He explains it far better than I ever could .

I read this yesterday in it’s entirety and first thought was another Joe Arpaio mentality, great, which I like and wish there was more of. Let’s face it, the police can’t be everywhere, and if your life is in jeopardy you may need to take matters into your own hands, It’s called the 2nd Amendment .
