Threats to CT Police Escalate Following CT Cop’s Gun Confiscation Comments – Cops Ask Pro-Gun Veteran to Help Cool Things Down
According to Cinque, Officer Joseph Peterson, who made comments in interaction on Facebook while off duty that he would "give my left nut to bang down your door and come for your gun…" has been placed on 24-hour guard due to threats on his life. This information came directly from Police Chief Kevin Halloran.
Mr. Cinque told us that he had a two and a half hour "sit down" with the Branford Police Department on Tuesday. He said that the Branford PD was supposed to come out with an apology for Peterson's comments and wanted Cinque's endorsement of the apology in an attempt to cool things down.
"The first words out of the police chief's mouth… were 'How can you help us with this?'" Cinque said. "They're getting killed over there. They said they can do nothing but deal with this."
Cinque's endorsement would not be automatic. "There are some things here that need to be addressed before I endorse the apology," he said. "Don't make the apology to me. The apology has to be to the residents of Branford and to the citizens of the State of Connecticut."
"If we are looking to tamp this thing down…none of us need violence here," Cinque continued.
"We're winning this thing; we're winning this thing hard here," Cinque said, referring to the efforts to ignore unconstitutional and unlawful legislation that seeks to have citizens register their semi-automatic rifles and high capacity magazines.
"That's the last thing we need," he added, referring to violence.

A few questions? Are his friends in the department guarding him with assault rifles? Do they have more than 10 rounds in their magazine? Why do they need this type of fire power against one intruder?
Now what could have happened at Lexington Bridge so many years ago? LOL!
This can’t possibly be drilled home often enough:
Apologies mean NOTHING. Legally or morally, they are just window dressing.
Thank you!
They are hiding in their mother’s basements now ...mailordering their steroids and having them delivered.
Still your point was well made. The missus and I have a trip to the area on our bucket list, and it will likely happen in the next three years.
My apology Chickensoup. Please excuse me while I jump out a window and run away screaming.
I don't think he would be able to honor the agreement...He has none to offer.
Wow! This really hammers home the sensibility and functionality of the Second Amendment. Thousands of law abiding gun owners, peaceful, yet very insistent this law goes far beyond “infringement”. The state government of Connecticut appears very small. That power is impressive.
looking very much forward to seeing how this plays out in Ct.
Love to see a cop goon squad rushing homes to take weapons away from lawful owners.
That should endear the cops to a whole lot of folks.

I like that!
Yup. Been there. Toured the whole area. Lexington Green, the works.
Very cool way to spend an afternoon. Every patriotic minded American should do it at least once. Even more so now.
239th anniversary of the Battle on The Green is coming up on April 19th.

A high percentage of wife beaters are cops. It fits the personality profile.
“The first words out of the police chief’s mouth… were ‘How can you help us with this?’”
Interesting way to phrase it. You get threatened then they ask how YOU can help THEM. I have some suggestions:
1- The cop who wants to kick in citizen’s doors gets fired.
2- The chief announces that his department will never comply with orders to invade people’s home to confiscate arms which were previously legal.
3- The chief will order training for all officers on how to interact with citizens who are legally carrying a firearm and to not instantly react to the sight of a citizen with a weapon with deadly force.
I like the *These colors don’t run* sentiment.
**”The cops are having the threats…. they are scared,” he told us.**
“has been placed on 24-hour guard due to threats on his life”
Another big mouth cop that ain’t near the bad ass he thinks he is. He’s quite the big man hiding behind a badge and a gun.
I’d like to see the *proof* that cops are getting threats.
[I know, I’m dreaming]
The CT state police are monitoring....
