NOT A MASK IN SIGHT!!! Unbelievably STUPID!! Children dying should be first on their mind – the adults want to die – have at it- BUT keep your kids safe. And to see authorities NOT PROTECTING THEM is unbelievable! what a disgrace.
@Well, Beulah is far from being anywhere close to one of the worst communities
All I can think of when looking at this is COVID….So many ppl preaching about how bad covid is but I don’t see anyone wearing a mask and definitely hard to social distance at an event like this…this might look like something good for the community…but looks like a big covid infestation to me.
I for one am EXTREMELY GRATEFUL for our new Sheriff!! Those with negative thoughts should rewind and think back to the former sheriff.ENOUGH SAID!!! You can feel the care and support Sheriff Simmons has for us and Escambia county as a community.I have yet to see this man without his genuine million dollar smile at one of these events! Thank you Sheriff Simmons and ECSO Officers for all you do!!!
How about masks? I mean we aren’t even through a whole week of school yrt.
Yes, they do need the MTAV with turret lol A drone would be great for tracking suspects I suppose, great idea
Maybe a couple of military drones next to really round the arsenal out?
That should have read *uparmored
Autocorrect strikes again
Additionally, officers are issued body armor, some have select fire SBR’s and other ride around with Benelli M4 12ga. Not to mention their superiority in numbers, tactics, and communications. Do they really NEED a turret equipped MATV too?
@ just sayin
They are starting with the worst communities first.
It will be awhile before they get to Century.
Thanks sheriff and deputies for putting this on. Even though I couldn’t make it I’m sure the public that showed up liked it. Of course you’re going to have all the liberals crying, but I have some sand bags they can pack.
Perfect waist of tax payer money.
@ Nobodyinparticular…. Here’s some ideas as to why they need the armored truck.
Put yourself in their shoes. You get a call that there is a hostage situation or an active shooter situation and the person is heavily armed. Would you go in to try to apprehend the suspect without protection around you? Without the armor, the officer would be a sitting duck and an open target for anyone to throw a bullet at. Not meant in a rude way just an educational way. Have a great day!
I have the up most respect for Sheriff Chip Simmons! He reached out to me due to a harassment problem I recently had. I know he is always available because he genuinely cares about his community. Thank you sir! I am so proud of what you continue to do for myself & our community.
I enjoyed the event. The ECSO had information and giveaways for children. It was nice to see so many positive interactions.
when are y’all coming to century for fun time
Nobodyinparticular:
In case you missed it, there’s a violent crime and drug problem in Pensacola sayyyyy for the past 15 years. Glad you woke up finally. Good to see you’re back. How was your sleep? Things changed Pensacola… its not small military town anymore.
Also, it’s armored* to stop the bullets because criminals shoot at cops. It’s the new future you always dreamed of.
Why does our sheriff’s office need an unarmored vehicle with a TURRET? This is NWFL, not the Khyber Pass
