Actually what he needs to do is buy him a gun if he don’t already have one and say come on down. He won’t to have to send but one or two of them to hell and the rest will leave him alone, of course then he will have to deal with Rick Scott’s Angela Corey’s and Pam Bondi’s goons. The point of the story is that he is on his own. Law enforcement now protects the criminal element, not law abiding citizens.
