Florida Sheriff Sounds Off On Democrats Fleeing Failing Cities, “Go Back”
Sheriff Carmine Marceno, originally from New York and now the sheriff of Florida’s Lee County, a position he has held since 2018, is taking a hard line on liberals fleeing from failing Democrat-run cities and criminals who might move out of those cities even as they eliminate cash bail and try to reduce incarceration of criminals. Sheriff Marceno emphasized his tough-on-crime stance in a recent interview with Fox News Digital.
Speaking to Fox News Digital about his stance on dealing with criminals, Sheriff Marceno said, “My message… is clear. If you think you can deal poison and commit crime, stay clear of Lee County and all the great state of Florida. We’re ready, and we will absolutely find you, hunt you down, and charge you to force the extent of the law.”
Continuing, he sounded off on people who flee failing far-left states like California and New York and then bring their terrible voting decisions with them to Florida, saying, “They want to leave California. They want to leave New York. Okay. And then they come down to a state like Florida, where we are law and order, and they don’t change their views.”
Explaining why that is such a ridiculous thing to do, Sheriff Marceno noted that voting in that way just brings those terrible policy choices to a place that’s only functioning because of their absence, thus turning the haven into a disaster. He said, “You left a place where there’s havoc, where people can rob, steal, loot, do drugs in safe havens. And then you’re upset that it’s so bad there, and you come here and still do the same thing. Same action, same result.”
That’s when he said that he tells those who would move to Florida and then vote in such a way that they need to leave Florida and go back to the crime-wracked hellhole from which they came. He said, “I tell people all the time, and it’s probably not popular to some. If you don’t like living with law and order, have a nice day. Leave. Go back to where you came from because we don’t want you here.”
Continuing on that point, he explained that Florida is welcoming of all except those who promote lawlessness, saying, “We welcome everyone to our great state of Florida. But if you think lawlessness leads the way, if you believe that criminals should roam the streets and steal and rob and, God forbid, deal poison to the streets and kill innocent people, you’re not the person we want here. You can go back and live with lawlessness.”
