Ariz. sheriff: I'll jail immigration protesters

Controversial doesn't mean illegal, unethical or immoral

You should probably click on the link and see how he's under investigation by the DoJ and FBI for his abuse of power. Never mind the list that is a mile long of people who accuse him of abusing his power simply because they stand his path. May they be political opponents in elections or people who speak out against what he's doing.

When he's convicted, get back to me.

:lol:
 
In March 2007, the Maricopa County Jail hosted "Inmate Idol"[19], a takeoff on the popular TV show American Idol.



Ok... ya.. you are right. This is truly a horrible man.

Burn him at the stake.

Got to love that dishonesty. :thup:

Oh I forgot, you don't care about accusations of abuse of power unless it's Obama or a Democrat.

How is it dishonest to quote from the source you gave?

Shhhhhhhhhhhh..... I don't think he read his own reference.
 
Without going into massive tl;dr detail:

Maricopa County Sheriff's Office controversies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The man constantly abuses his power in general from what I've read.

Controversial doesn't mean illegal, unethical or immoral

Hold on, Hold On:

In February 2007, Arpaio instituted an in-house radio station he calls KJOE.[18] Arpaio's radio station broadcasts classical music, opera, Frank Sinatra hits, patriotic music and educational programming. It operates from the basement of the county jail for five days a week, four hours each day

:eek::eek::eek:

Shit, Lone Star, how can you be SO BLIND TO ABUSE OF POWER!!!:doubt:

When was the last time you were incarcerated?
 
In 2001, Arpaio required all inmates 18 years and older to register for the Selective Service System. Such registration is mandatory for all U.S. males between 18 and 26 years of age, as well as for resident aliens of the same age regardless of their immigration status. Since 2001, a total of 28,000 inmates (including 9,000 illegal aliens) have registered for Selective Service.[36][37]

The Sheriff also started the "Have a Heart" program in which inmates may volunteer to be organ donors.[37]


Holy hell, fellas.... this just chokes me up. How can a man be so barbaric!!!?????

Such ignorance, I'm sure you find this okay:

Under Arpaio, the Maricopa County Jails have lost accreditation multiple times.[21] In September, 2008, the National Commission on Correctional Health Care terminated the accreditation of all Maricopa County Sheriff's Office jails for failure to maintain compliance with national standards, and providing false information about such compliance.[dead link][22][23] In October, 2008, a U.S. district court judge ruled that the grossly inadequate conditions at the Maricopa County Jail, overseen by Arpaio, are unconstitutional and jeopardize the health and safety of prisoners.[24]

In October 2009, it was reported that the FBI was investigating Arpaio for using his position to settle political vendettas.[44]

Reports show that, under Arpaio, the MCSO may be improperly clearing as many as 75% of cases without arrest or proper investigation.[

Protesters are automatically breaking the law? Does AZ believe in anything constitutional anymore?

No one said protesters were breaking the law, not even the sheriff. What he said is he'd arrest anyone who does break the law at a protest by blocking the entrance/exit to the jail. Which is an arrestable offense at ANY protest.

Point out to me where he said that a protester was automatically breaking the law just by protesting.

The title of the thread:

Ariz. sheriff: I'll jail immigration protesters

Maybe you shouldn't base you opinions on the dishonest title of the thread and maybe you should actually read the article linked within the thread.

I tried to validate your wiki quote by following #24 to its source and got:


Element not valid
The element requested is either not valid or does not exist.

:doubt:

Is any of the article "honest?"
 
I'd like to see Arpaio spend a week in one of his tents. The guy sends corrections back to the medieval ages

mee too, we don't believe in law in this here country, not a single reason in the world for anyone to have to follow the law.

What? :eusa_eh:

I went down and clicked on #24:

Judge Calls Maricopa County Jail Conditions Unconstitutional | American Civil Liberties Union

No, that's citation #25, but I'll not split hairs over the technicality.

Aside from the ACLU writing a hysterical article, quoting their own hysterics, I see that Sherrif Joe has been accused of serving bad food in jail, and that his jails are bad places to be.

It took the ACLU YEARS to make this case, which seems to have been won because of poor record keeping in the Sherriff's office.

If being a poor clerk is the Sherriff's biggest "abuse of power" this needs to be added to all the other frivoulous crap included in your Wiki citation.

Uh, do you bother to read or are you being dishonest?

#24 is clearly the ACLU article which you said doesn't work. #25 works as well.

Like I said, I'm not going to make whether or not a linky works a red herring to the broader issue: The ACLU case was not much more frivoulous than all the other "abuses of power" contained in the article.

Yeah, I reade the article: Like I said most of it quotes ACLU lawyers complaining that a jail is a bad place to be. The food is bad, beds are not always available, people acting crazy are not given counselling......the usual stuff.
