I gotta admit he did seem to get to liking the attention too much. At least he meant well at one time, though.
Federalism is a two way street, though I agree its usually a one way street going the Feds way, they got one right here. Arapio's been going after legal Hispanic-Americans committing no crime, just as hard as he's been pursuing criminal illegals. Racism, plain and simple.
Surely you misunderstood my post... Besides rampant racial profiling (which I know most of y'all will never go for), do you find it the least bit suspicious that almost any public official who gets in a disagreement with Arapio ends up being charged with something? Here's a little list: Phil Gordon, Phoenix Mayor Dan Saban, Arpaio's 2004 and 2008 opponent for the office of Sheriff of Maricopa County Terry Goddard, Arizona Attorney General David Smith, Maricopa County Manager The Maricopa County Board of Supervisors Barbara Mundell, Maricopa Superior Court Presiding Judge Anna Baca, former Maricopa Superior Court Presiding Judge Gary Donahoe, Maricopa Superior Court Criminal Presiding Judge Daniel Pochoda, ACLU attorney Sandra Dowling, former Maricopa County School Superintendent Mike Lacy, Editor, Phoenix New Times Of those listed, only Dowling was convicted of any crime. A class-2 misdemeanor of patronage, for giving her daughter a summer job in the school district. That charge, was nowhere in the original 25-count felony indictment. The sheriff is clearly out of control, and needs his power checked. Arapio sent in the SWAT team to Dowling's house, which in itself is hardly necessary when her charges related to stealing money from the school, not ****ing gun running. I love how you just sit there like an ignorant piece of ****, and call others idiots without offering any real sort of facts or evidence. You got anything substantive or are we done here?
[h=1]The Feds Have Evidence That Joe Arpaio Broke the Law -- When Will The Indictments Come?[/h] Sheriff Joe is a scumbag. People have known it for a while (please note the date on the article). I especially love the part how a judge threw out a 117 count indictment on Arpaio's Republican political enemy because each and every count was bogus. Fox News needs to find a new hero.
Yeah, this isnt politically motivated or anything. Obama's socialites are hard at it. Making sure the latinos stay in his pocket. If he really cared, why not do this a lot sooner? But since now you are officially campaigning to keep your job, you do it now? God, I hope this negro gets voted out of office!
Actually I am all for profiling. It seems pretty stupid to me when 9 out of 10 illegals are latino to not target latinos for an identity check. Legally you can't do it so you need to be a little more discreet in how its done. Perhaps Joe needs to further refine his process. Racist...absolutely not. Just a fact of life in the US concerning illegal immigrants. Put 12,000,000 illegal Canadians here and you will see almost the same reaction. I say almost because the Canadians would be able to speak English...well they sorta can. heh. Now it would seem Joe's opponents (if that's what your list contains) are getting some rather tough scrutiny. Probably an abuse of power I would agree. Maybe some counseling would be in order. Sure hate to pull a guy away from his work that is doing such a bang up job.
Wait is this Like a Personal attack er sompun? Surely you wouldnt resort to such a Low thing since you feel you need to report EVERY one who ever says one little thing about YOU. Go away Boy yer ignorant and ya bother me
Im-****ing-pressive So you're all for doing somethign illegal, to keep out illegals? How would you feel about being profiled if you were say, one of the millions of legal Americans of Latin American decent? There's about 50,000,000 of them, so chances are the average Juan isn't an illegal. Kinda makes profiling a little useless, don't you say? And no, I'm not convicting him. But those who enforce our laws and are given positions of great power need to be held to very high, very high standards. He was given a position power and has clearly abused it. Nope? Didn't think so
Law enforcement filing false indictments in order to intimidate and harass political opponents? How can you possibly defend that? The profiling thing, I agree, that makes a lot of sense. I'm kind of fine with it. That doesn't excuse the rest of his behavior. Arpaio is a ****bag and he's going down.
