Louisiana Sheriff Has Two Word Response For Domestic Violence. "Drop Him." :: 08/15/2015

Quick! Someone get our delicate anti-gun opposites to a fainting couch!

A no-nonsense Louisiana sheriff has dared say what they cannot stand to hear.

Ascension Parish Sheriff Jeff Wiley said the domestic murder case in Geismar this week case shows the limits of a system meant to protect victims.

While Sheriff Wiley said it is important to fully utilize the legal system, he said it can’t protect victims 24/7. He suggested an additional option.

“Get your concealed weapons permit. Ladies, learn how to safely handle a weapon, learn how to safely store a weapon, and when you’re in a situation like this shoot him in your back yard before he gets in your house. Drop him,” said Wiley.

The Sheriff admitted the advice may sound radical, but he said extreme violence requires extraordinary efforts for protection.

“Take the extremes necessary to live a life where you don’t have to worry about your kids and your life,” said Wiley.

Wiley’s comments came in response to a situation in his jurisdiction where a woman was beaten to death with a baseball bat after her estranged husband proved that a restraining order is paper thin.
