Holding criminals accountable in 2024?!?!
WHAT AN IDEA!!!
D.A.s and judges too!
@@rahkinrah1963 They are all overpaid and let too many criminals lose into society.
Without the democrat party, there would hardly be any crime
@brentmorrison3392 Same thing here in Australia.
This is more than a year old.
This is my kind of Sheriff. Dont allow anyone to break into your home.
Too late for that 😅
Unlike Canada. Leave your key fobs by the front door...
What ? You probably don’t know how many genders there are.
Canadian cops are not Men !
This is how America should be. Look out for yourself and neighbors and don't become reliant on government services you can't always count on, ESPECIALLY in deep blue cities.
This is EXACTLY how ALL Law enforcement needs to tell the public!
AGREE!!!
You are 100% correct. And there’s much more they could tell the public.
My sheriff!!!❤❤.
So true!
My Sheriff. He's a nice guy too! His predecessor Wendell Hall was cool too.
They want the armed homeowner to come forward, not to be charged with a crime, but for firearms training so he won't miss next time! Priceless!😂
Hilarious!!!🤣
@jamesmartin7282 This demonstrates to me that the police are truly members of the community. And they don't regard the Firearm owning, Law abiding public as a danger. So very unlike where I live in Canada.
@@hardrock1826 Canada is finished.
@@hardrock1826Same in South Canada ( Maine)
And possibly for a charge of discharging a firearm inside city limits. Never volunteer information to cops.
This Sheriff should run the country! Not just the Santa Rosa Sheriff's Department.
Normally I'd disagree with this but we have Biden in office. So.... yeah. This guy for President.
I wish that sheriff's attitude were like that across all states.
I like a no nonsense Sheriff. This country would run so much better if other states were run like Florida. Who doesn't want to save taxpayer dollars & instead put that $ to better use than creating job security like he said.
Last I heard, he's a Senator, now. He's heading in the right direction.
Hes like Grady Judd the other no nonsense sheriff in Florida
And then home invasions magically plummeted. An armed society is a polite society!!
Amen
Yup
Um, no. Take a look at the list of American states by homicide rate. Some of the highest rates are in states with the highest gun ownership
America is one of the most heavily armed societies on earth, and it is far more dangerous than most other developed countries. Notice you never see mass murders in any other country like you do here
@frankmacleod2565 you could not be more WRONG
Give this sheriff a raise!
...and a hug!
And a Cabinet post.
I want a sheriff like this in charge of my county...
Like Okaloosa County for example. It neighbors Santa Rosa county.
You said country wrong 😊
Sheriffs are voted in so you have that opportunity
@@Amil.C he spelt it correctly !but you did not 😁
@@Amil.C Do you even know that county is a word?
This is literally how you stop crime. If only Canada could realize this simple simple thing.
I couldn’t agree more!
You have criminals in Canada?!!
@@DieFlabbergast The really Bad ones are what we call The Liberal Party.
@@DieFlabbergast There is criminals in every country, so yes.
@@DieFlabbergast Most of them are in parliament
canada police: "leave your keyfob at the door"
Florida sheriff: "hold my beer"
Correction: “hold my 30 year single-malt Scotch”. This guy is a king.
Mic drop
👍👍👍👍
It's been a year since this video came out.
And home invasions in this sheriffs county are non-existent.
It’s my county. I agree with him but our home invasion numbers are low, and have been for a while. Florida is called the “gunshine state” for a reason.
...they have sought softer target elsewhere. I hear Canada is pretty soft.
Put him in charge of the border
😮😅
Border hell, put him in charge of the DOJ, maybe he can reintroduce "justice" into that department.
He should arrest Biden for crimes against America FJB
Once someone breaks into a home they have lost all rights.
My son and I are usually the ones giving up when someone comes into our house.
They have gained the right to die lol
Well done sir.
@@bowtieguy85, why? Punish the uninvited intruder with a beating or reward them with hot lead...
@@donotneed2250 I don't have any lead
We need more sheriffs like Bob Johnson in the United States.
Meanwhile in Canada, Toronto police advise residents to hand over your car keys and don't resist.
Pathetic.
Same in California they say to not lock your car doors to keep criminals from breaking the windows. Then claim crime is down.
Sorry for you yes that is very sad ❗️😢
Now there is a Sheriff. Reelect this guy he's going to save the county a lot of money on trials
Give this sheriff an award for Peace Officer of the Year!!!
The judges have to quit letting these kind of criminals out. Put them away.
Democrat appointed judges.
It's just a business.They don't care if they get released
Self defense is a basic, instinctive human right.
That's true. it's something that Jesus also tried to redirect. Turn the other cheek...
@@Transform108 eh not really, it’s pretty crystal clear how Jesus feels about you owning a “sword” “sell something and go buy a sword, for there is no greater love than protecting the ones you love” something along those lines
@@mrspikbolt Quite really.
"Put your sword back in its place,” Jesus said to him, “for all who draw the sword will die by the sword. Matthew 26:52
You:
"no greater love than protecting the ones"
Bible says...
John 15:12-15 NIV. My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends.
Not lay down someone else's life... it is... lay down your own life.
It seems to me that humans are the only species on this planet that penalize each other for defending themselves.
Move on liberal troll. Try your own twisted version of Jesus' words with your own wife and kids.
THIS GUY NEEDS TO BE IN CHARGE OF HOMELAND SECURITY !!!!!
Mr. Johnson unquestionably sets the standard for other sheriffs to follow! Big fan of Sheriff Bob Johnson!
Not sure but Florida seems like a different country. A better country!
Research what county you move into thoroughly.
@@Coasterdude02149 Certainly better than Canada, that's for sure. What a dumpster fire Canada is.
We don't claim south Florida
Just like we don’t claim nyc @@bbrcummins1984
@@bbrcummins1984 cuz it’s more dem or something?? I always thought south Florida was crazier 😅
Sheriff I have zero questions for you. Just a standing ovation.
I would have asked "may I shake your hand, sir"
If only we had these rights in Canada.
We have rights in Canada?
@@X-Prime123 *These* rights
You have no rights in Canada… not even property right. The million dollar house your rich parents worked so hard for, doesn’t even belong to Canadians. It belongs to the states. “ All Lands belongs to the queen/king. Don’t believe me? Go look it up.
I would never live there and I feel sorry for anyone that does.
If only we had these rights in California
"of course, he didnt get hit... so now we have to pay for him" that is real talk. every able-minded, law-abiding American should own a gun and know how to use it.
This is correct
Don't expect me to own one.
@@bowtieguy85 why not?????
@@potatogrower I don't keep weapons in my house.
@@bowtieguy85 lol
No one should get in any kind of trouble when defending their lives, families and homes!!! Thank you sir!!!
Finally Someone with common sense! BRAVO!
This is the greatest press conference EVER!!!😂😂😂😂 This sheriff is a legend! "Come take our class so next time you don't miss"!😂😂😂😂 Best advice ever!
Great sheriff excellent advice. Judges need to be held accountable for their decisions they tend to give the lightest sentence rather than the harshest
how about parole boards?
Update: Home invasions dropped dramatically in his county since the sheriff said this last year.
We need more like him and Sheriff Judd.
We need all law enforcement agencies to be like this. Crime will cease.
Precisely. And they would then have put themselves out of a cushy govt job. See how this works? 🤔
I dont see an issue with this. If you break into my home while I am there, you are there to hurt me and I will stop that by any means available to me.
Or maybe they're just there to rob you but not actually hurt you.
@@lizliz4186 totally reasonable. Should we help them carry out stuff as well?
@@lizliz4186 you need help if you would defend someone breaking into your house to rob you. Look at crime stats, beatings and death happen when the home owner is present.
@@lizliz4186 do you want to take that chance of being attacked or sexually assaulted?
Liz Liz is a Trudeau robot i would imagine
I wish our police in Australia were like you Bob. Most of our police are antigun and anti self defence. They think our draconian gun laws are great.
With that mentality, that’s why America is the greatest country and a world super power. I mean, you have to be doing something right in order to become the greatest country on earth.
@@marryson123We have $30 trillion in debt, and over $200 trillion in unfunded liabilities. Our cities and infrastructure are crumbling. Our schools are seminaries for leftism. We welcome tens of millions of illegal immigrants. We don’t have an official language. Yeah, we’re the best alright. Uh huh.🤔
MALS
Maybe learn how to use an ax or anything that's handy. Being able to defend yourself is a basic human right.
@@marryson123As a Canadian, I find myself way more fascinated with American history and even patriotism more than Canadian. I find myself chanting *USA! USA! USA!* Gotta love George Washington, a helluva guy he was!
Love this Sheriff's attitude and actions.
I 100% agree with the Sheriff ! We need more like him and Sheriff Grady Judd in Florida !
FJb Florida joins Biden lmfao
Every time Florida is in the news its a place that just gets better and better.
Republican runed
Florida should be renamed Mordor.
@@richardcosta9014 I see you are the typical liberal too stupid for correct spelling. 😂🤡
@@ConsiderTheCrows You must be a shitheel criminal.
@@richardcosta9014”Republican runed”. Were you attempting to say ruined? As in “Florida has been ruined by Republicans”?
If you are risking my life in your hands... It should only be fair that you risk your life in my hands too.
I am very happy to live in this great state of Florida with a Great Governor that Supports our Great Law Enforcement!
Thank you Sheriff for your service!
Applaud this!
Can’t expect to break into someone’s home (especially if they have a family) and expect them Not to defend their home
Ask a Democrat. They seem to know better....
What does it matter whether someone lives alone or with family members?
Not in Australia, our government is weak and they would find it easier to punish the home owner, specially if the person breaking in is of colour.
@@shane11887 Well apparently the citizens are weaker, since they stood by and allowed the government to confiscate their guns.
@@shane11887same here in chinada....but there's any easy way to save the hassle......can you guess?
Obviously his last 17 penalties have not been severe enough.
That sheriff took every word right out of my mouth.
Hire this guy for Chief of Police of Toronto right now!
@va3svd That wouldn't go over too well. The Toronto cops are Delicate Little Flowers. They would be in a Tizzy if they had to do their job. And having an armed public would throw them into a mental breakdown.
"He didn't get hit, and now we have to pay for him" Savage AF
This should be federal policy, not just one county.
Any area where legal firearm ownership is high, crime is always low. Hmm. Seems like a correlation there.
Make Criminals Afraid Again.
Excellent. And it lets criminals know that they should not do their crimes in Florida.
I LOVE this Sheriff!!!!
If more folks would follow this sheriffs advice home invasions would become very rare!
This Sherrif is telling like it IS !!!
He's great. California needs this thought process !
They are not capable of common sense out there
California born and raised and still here and the way the laws are set here, you’re not allowed to be a hero!, you’re allowed to only be a victim or a criminal 🤦🏻♂️
@@jaythemachine3845 you should be ashamed to call that place home & condoning that foolishness
There are freeways leading out of California. I took one in 2005 and never looked back. Bye! @@jaythemachine3845
You need a brain to think, Commiefornia runs on emotion.
This guy and Sheriff Grady in Polk County. Florida is better for them. I wish we had more of them. There are enough bad apples around as LEOs, but these guys are straight up dudes!
This was how it used to be! The court and prison systems were far less crowded!
i love how he brings up the gun safety class. if all gun owners would sign up for this then there would be fewer tragedies
Last i heard a prisoner in pa costs the taxpayer 32k a year. That takes into consideration wages,benefits for prison staff,cost to maintain facility,ect.. medical costs dental feeding.
Another problem is that money will just be abused anyway
Love his understanding of the law! We need these kind of officers running communities across the country!
Love this guy! Of course in Canada, all the do gooders would want the homeowner in jail.
Self-defense for victims is banned in Canada.
@@Rocksteady246 Of course it is, at least from a practical standpoint. Americans love our firearms! You Canadians can get stiffed.
Same thing in England. I don't miss living in that place at all.
@@Rocksteady246 ur right recently in Ab can, homeowner shoots intruder dead. No charges no confiscation and never detained. So we canadians can defend our private prop.
Canada do gooders can stay in Canada it's my house and my family he'd be dead if he was 2 counties over and came in my door
This is My kind to TRUE COMMON SENSE LAW ENFORCEMENT! LOVE Sheriff Bob Johnson's common sense law enforcement! Amen!
Your common sense is undereducated ignorance by my standards. Go take a nap, boomer.
The Sheriff is absolutely correct,
YOU do the Crime
YOU face the Consequences
Sheriff Johnson is awesome! Every county in the United States should be blessed enough to have one just like him!
My town has an awesome sheriff but I don't go around throwing out stupid words like "blessed" because of it. Keep that crap to yourself.
@@User0000000000000004 do your parents know your not sleeping at this hour?
Him and Judd should take over
But my state doesn't have counties.
When can that come to Canada ? The way we have it now, if a thief breaks into your house and stubs his toe...the cops arrest you for not having the appropriate warnings posted in a place where he can see them...in Hindi, Mandarin, French and Cree.
Kinda reminds me of the state I live in.
🤔😕
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not in English!? He'll sue you for personal injury and pain & suffering. Then win a judgment in court. Then he'll own your house. Then to get your house back from him, you have to do the same thing, break in and stub your toe.
Isn't liberalism wonderful?
You have the right to protect yourself / Family and your property.
Not in democrap states and cities

It's that or wait 45 minutes for the cops to arrive. What could happen in 45 minutes when there's an armed robber inside your house at 3am?
Love him. I also love Grady Judd. Florida has the best sheriff's. Proud to be a Floridian.
FJb Florida joins Biden
I have nothing in my home that is worth your life. If you choose to ignore this simple fact, the consequences are entirely on you.
@@Rocksteady246 I read your posts but I don't understand what you are getting at?
@@Rocksteady246 Why don't you just speak your mind clearly? What game are you playing?
@@Rocksteady246 I asked you what your point was, what part of that don't you understand? Are you playing some sort of game?
Unfortunately my son and I were the ones facing consequences when we got robbed.
@@Rocksteady246 if someone comes into my home uninvited, I will assume they have the worst possible motives in mind and will deal with said person(s) accordingly. I refuse to be a victim
This is the correct way to defend your house. When the break in starts the shooting starts.
I’m sorry but if someone breaks into my home I will turn into a grizzly bear in a heartbeat to protect my child. I will show no mercy!
As long as we aren’t prosecuted for protecting ourselves, our properties and our families.
Amazing Sheriff.
In Canada we'd arrest any homeowners attempting to defend themselves. Sad. Now they recommend leaving your valuables by the front door so they are easier to take.
It isn't much better here in Portland Oregon USA.
Sheriff Grady in Polk County is just like that. Wish all Sheriff's were like that.
Imagine hating someone who says that it’s okay for you to defend yourself and your home.
We have the 'Make my Day' Law.
We need this in Canada. Consequences for unlawful actions.
The sheriff is a true leader, no nonsense trump should interview this guy for his VP
How to send this to Justin Trudeau??
Rather be judged by 12, than carried by 6!
Nice!
@Mr Dice or in this case multiple places, chasing women with children, have felony warrants etc. Don't do any of that and being carried by 6 will be less likely.
Then don’t break into someone elses home
AMEN to that well said
Put judges that let these guys walk in jail!
I envy you Floridians, I say that as a limey 🇬🇧. Wish we had the 2A. I've been burgled twice and lost items of sentimental value.😢
Get a alarm system
And in Canada, were told to leave our doors open with a map of our home that gives the locations of all of our goods. And please be silent while your house is being robbed, you dont want to disturb the "down trodden" (robbers are victims everyone) while they steal your stuff.
This is the best Sheriff I have ever seen. You sir are awesome
Look up Sheriff Grady Judd, thank me later
Why are we even keeping criminals like that around, who will NEVER change?
The title alone is why I gave the video a thumbs up BEFORE I even watched the video. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE my Florida Sheriffs. These guys don't and won't play around with you. They mean business.
My neighbor in AZ told me that the sheriff in AZ told them the same thing. That was like 15 years ago
Love this cool sheriff
VOTE THIS YEAR FOR A CITY COUNCIL THAT WILL SUPPORT A SHERIFF LIKE THIS IN YOUR COUNTY
I live in upstate New York at the moment but moving in 3 years as moving is not an easy thing. We are moving because of this exact problem, criminals are everywhere and frankly it's been like this my entire life. Not sure why my parents came here but I've had enough. Actually I've had enough 30 years ago. Wish I never lived here, ever. Thinking of going to Florida and this helps a lot.
Missouri is not a bad place, stay away from big cities tho. Then you have the hillbillies.......they mean well!
Please stay out of the south. Your ridiculous politics got you to where you are today. Lay in the bed you made
Common law since Roman times. Sheriff, thanks for promoting our better angels of responsibility.
Citizens and ppl like this are who need to run this county. Not career politicians with their own interests
Question.. we need all 50 states with this attitude.
That's not a question, dunce.
Well why do they continue to release him from jail then . He obviously is never going to change. So he is a menace to society.
The cops aren't the ones releasing him from jail.
This Sheriff has my vote for Law Enforcement Officer of the Year. Not only does he protect the armed homeowner's actions, but he invites the armed homeowner to a Sheriff Department sponsored gun safety class, so the homeowner won't miss the criminal next time. Bravo Sir.
my favorite sheriffs...Wayne Ivey, Grady Judd & Bob Johnson
Compare that to Toronto Police who say to leave your keys at the front door for the criminals
He should be in charge of homeland security or border fire mayorkas
The 2nd amendment. Saving taxpayers money since 1791 😉
WoW....I really like this cop's point of view!
Love this Sheriff, speaks the truth!
Judges are not held accountable
A very special Sheriff, with a great attitude, and a smooth self assured speaking style! He should run a trading academy
For other law enforcement executives. Public relations at its finest! Law
Love his attitude,we live in the sticks thankfully. Still ready to defend our home...
Respected sir thank you very much... Congratulations sir
