NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – All licensed handgun owners in Ulster County should carry their pistols. That’s the message Thursday from the Ulster County Sheriff. Ulster County is located about two hours north of New York City. “In light of recent events that have occurred in the United States and around the world I want to encourage citizens of Ulster County who are licensed to carry a firearm to please do so,” wrote Sheriff Paul J. Van Blarcum in a Facebook post. “I urge you to responsibly take advantage of your legal right to carry a firearm. To ensure the safety of yourself and others, make sure you are comfortable and proficient with your weapon, and knowledgeable of the laws in New York State with regards to carrying a weapon and when it is legal to use it.” Van Blarcum’s post comes a day after authorities said a married couple killed 14 people in San Bernardino, Calif. “I also want to remind all Police/Peace Officers both active duty and retired to please carry a weapon whenever you leave your house. We are the thin blue line that is entrusted in keeping this country safe, and we must be prepared to act at any given moment,” Van Blarcum wrote. President Barack Obama said the shooting was another opportunity for America to come together to push for gun control measures. “We all have a part to play. As the investigation moves forward, it’s going to be important for all of us, including our legislatures, to see what we can do to make sure that when an individual decides they want to do somebody harm, we make it a little harder for them to do it. Right now, it’s just too easy,” Obama said Thursday. “We’re going to have to, I think, search ourselves as a society.” Van Blarcum’s call comes as the New York Daily News criticized Republican lawmakers and presidential candidates for not pushing for tougher gun control measures.

I feel much safer knowing that Van Barclam and the GOP are vigilantly defending Syed Farook & Robert Lewis Dear's right to keep & bear arms.
Willie, you are truly a lost cause in the USA. Wouldn't you be happier in a nice, civilized country like China? I just get the feeling you aren't happy here.

Moving wouldn't help... overpopulation & globalization is turning the whole planet into a massive garbage dump.
Not only keep and bear arms but also use them when legal. It is my right to return fire. There are three kinds of people in the world: those that can add and those that can't
Am I supposed to feel safer knowing that idiot Obozo wants to bring more "refugees" like Farook into the country??? Vegetarians eat vegetables. Beware of humanitarians!
You're the Obozo... Farook wasn't a refugee, he was born in the USA.
I was referring to Farooks lack of mental acuity, he obviously read/studied the Koran, didn't play well with others and voted for Democrats... Hey that means you 2 had something in common... Vegetarians eat vegetables. Beware of humanitarians!
Here ya go - an untouched by human hands mission field for you and some beings to convert to Statism "Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD . . . " ~Psalm 33:12a
It's not my fault that you can't express your thoughts clearly.
