Wow. Crime has gotten so bad in Joe Biden’s American that Santa Claus feels he needs to carry to protect himself from looters this year? Apparently so!
From the El Paso County Sheriff’s Department:
Guess who came in to receive his Concealed Handgun Permit today? 🎅
Did you know the El Paso County Sheriff's Office has issued 49,750 Concealed Handgun Permits with another 2,560 awaiting to be issued?

They later clarified that this was to “help recognize our hard-working staff” and not meant to be insensitive:
EPSO intended to highlight our staff in the Concealed Handgun Permit Office, not to be insensitive. Santa correlates to the month of December and we thought he would help to recognize our hard working staff.
