30. He just gave a reason to be discharged of his duties, how can he be a sheriff, carry a gun if his meds make him

act weird? He is a danger to society, who knows what the meds can make him do, would he shoot an innocent person because of the influence of the meds he takes? He must be taken out of his post, guns must be taken away from him before he does something he "doesn't know what he is doing".
