“The people in Polk County like guns, they have guns, I encourage them to own guns. — 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.”
Those were the words from Polk County Sheriff Grady Judd, and he’s obviously not messing around when it comes to the safety of citizens in his juristiction.
In addition, a curfew for the county went into effect this evening at 8 pm, and extends until 5 am tomorrow morning.
