A Kentucky sheriff's office has posted a flyer on its Facebook page asking drug dealers to turn in their rivals.

Multiple media outlets report the Franklin County Sheriff's Office posted the flyer Monday afternoon. It features an image of a marijuana leaf and says, "Is your drug dealing competition costing you money? We offer a free service to help you eliminate your drug competition!"

Franklin County Sheriff Pat Melton says the post is funny, but the sheriff's department is not joking around.

At the bottom of the letter, people are asked to fill out information about the drug dealer they are reporting, including the dealer's name and vehicle.

Melton says he got the idea from the McIntosh County Sheriff's Office in Georgia.

As of Tuesday morning, the post had 394 online shares.

Thoughts?

i don't like this at all...

who says that these "tips" will be real and if they aren't the police would just end up harassing americans off of a lousy tip they get from a criminal?

You think they'd fingerprint the paper and catch themselves another drug deal while they're at it.

Agreed.

You just know someone who's not a drug dealer is going to put down names and numbers of either random people or people who pissed them off just so they can get police to harass them. I bet more then anything the police will just be running around in circles following bogus leads.
