Georgia sheriff's welcome sign is also a hilarious warning - and it's gone viral

A welcome sign from the sheriff of Harris County went viral on social media after people read its hilarious message that doubles as a warning.

Here's what the sign said

“Our citizens have concealed weapons," the sign read. "If you kill someone, we might kill you back."

"We have ONE jail and 356 cemeteries. Enjoy your stay!” it added cheerfully.

WTVM reported that this wasn't the first time a clever sign from the sheriff had gone viral. In 2015, people cheered the sign that read, "Warning: Harris County is politically incorrect. We say Merry Christmas, God Bless America and In God We Trust. We Salute our troops and our flag. If this offends you... Leave!"

Harris County Sheriff Mike Jolley believed so much in the message that he paid $553 out of his own pocket to have it installed.
