Makes you wonder when they investigate a Sheriff for ENFORCING the law.

If only he would shoot a drug dealer in the ass.

Eric Holder is a punk anyway Sheriff Joes should kick his ass then kick every fed our of his county. Better yet maybe issue them some pink underwear and give them a bunk in his tent city. At some point our state and local elected officals need to quit being whores to DC and back the cowards back into the limitations that the Constitution put on them.  That would mean electing some real men like Sheriff Joe not the emasculated crop of political hacks we have now.

That's what the State sovereignty movement is all about, your profile block doesn't say where you are, but more than 26 states have these measures on their agenda. Are you supporting it in your state ? Have you made any effort to get such legislation introduced ?

its a damn shame that old joes tent city idea does not work at keeping people out of jail... The recidivism rate for tent city is same as the state average. ( which is the same as the old jail) 


One of those ideas that sounds great, but does not work.


Any one that does not live in the south west has no idea what illegals have done to states.

The "tent city" does serve its main purpose ... It saves the tax payers lots of money.  Beyond that it does no better and no worse than standard prisons of any luxury level. 

I lived in So. CA and I understand what illegals do to the local economy and infrastructure.  It is not pretty, and I don't buy that it is something we need to accept for the labor shortage in certain areas.

10% unemployment in CA right now... lots of people would love to have any job.

I really wish there were more Sheriff's out there who had the balls and spine as Joe Arpaio. Criminals need to be treated as criminals. I love the statistics on his recidivism rates in his county. Sounds like he is doing something right. As for illegal immigrants, they need to be removed from our country and if he is helping to keep them off the streets till they are deported by the Border Patrol or Immigration, more power to him. Not liking the fact that the scumbags in Mexico are bringing their drug wars into the United States. I thought there were atrocities with terrorists in Iraq and Afghanistan but it pales in comparison to the crap that is going on south of our border. Arpaio and the other sheriffs in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California are the front lines of the mess creeping its way northward.
