Arpaio in trouble for abusing Latinos

I lived in Phoenix for 15 years. I can assure you that this is total BS. The Arizona police do NOT approach the Hispanic community as if they were a bunch of criminals, or in a corrupt, harassing, threatening, bullying manner. They approach everyone that way and being Hispanic has nothing to do with it.
 
Justice Department reports pattern of civil rights abuses in Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio’s Maricopa County - latimes.com

You can imagine the shock and surprise among those of us in the civil rights community…

Maybe at sone point you will have to face the fact that hes a racist

I don’t believe it to be ‘racism,’ it is fear and ignorance, however, common with Arpaio’s supporters and those hostile to the Constitution in general.

Let's see, is this the same Justice Department that began investigating and harassing Sheriff Joe 4 days after Holder took over as it's head, is suing 3 states for enforcing this country's immigration laws because they won't...or the same Justice Department, run by a black man, who refused to even investigate a CAUGHT ON TAPE voter intimidation by members of the Black Panthers against whites?

Maybe it's the same Justice Department whose director LIED to Congress about forcing American gun dealers to sale guns ILLEGALLY to Mexican drug cartels. Guns that have killed HUNDREDS of Mexicans and at least 3 American government officials including a border patrol agent!

Is THAT the justice department you think we should take seriously?

It's obvious the truth DON'T matter!

Oh...forgot to mention. Who is Holder's boss....oh yeah, Janet Napolitano at the Department of Homeland Security. Let's see, where do I remember that nam...oh yeah. FORMER GOVERNOR OF ARIZONA!!!

Nothing to see here folks. Just drive on!

Nope...the truth DON'T matter!

The snag is evidence – Justice has an abundant amount with regard to Arpaio, you have none with your post.

With 1300 hundred pages of explanation, as to why they couldnt be truthful with congress. Your rant of evidence is laughable.
 
No surprise that Eric Holder would do something like this with the elections less than a year out...he has so much knowledge in this matter. Yet, he has no knowledge of what the ATF was doing with the "Fast & Furious". This is THE MAN that is in charge of the ATF. Go figure with this kind of bias justice from this administration.

Holder and TM register equally on the stupid meter. Honest injun.
 
He described Latinos arrested on unreasonable traffic stops, businesses raided when Latinos gather out front, inmates mocked with racial epithets, and 432 cases of sexual assault and child molestation, often involving Latinos, that "were not properly investigated over a three-year period."

One Latino was intentionally hit by a patrol car and dragged, with instructions for other deputies to "leave him there," prosecutors said. A Latino motorist was incarcerated for 13 days for not using his turn signal. Emails written by deputies caricatured Mexicans as being from "Mexifornia," and deputies derided Latino inmates as "wetbacks," "Mexican bitches," "stupid Mexicans" and other epithets.

Prosecutors say the abuse begins with deputies targeting Latino drivers, who it said were four to nine times more likely to be stopped than whites, and asserted that officers "treat Latinos as if they are all undocumented, regardless of whether a legitimate factual basis exists to suspect that a person is undocumented."

TM you are not getting this. My previous comment was not me being a smart ass. I am being completely honest. The Arizona police do shit like that to everyone regardless of their race.
 
no one should be falsely arrested or raped.

When the truth comes out that the allegations were false, are you going to come back and apologize....or are you going to cut and run?
Don't answer that, they were rhetorical questions.

She's a liar. And not a very good one. Even when it can be proved that she lies, she continues to lie. According to her, you have to prove she lied, she is not required to provide evidence that what she claims as 'fact' is, indeed, fact.

She's a lying hack.
 
Every human being should be treated decently.

On that we should all agree

well that settles that.....the very Latino friendly L.A. Times says there is Brownie abuse in Arizona......i bet its not as bad as they say it is.....and im basing that on how they spin the local stories here.... minor problems are made to sound like they are major ones......
 
Yes.

there is a decency that every human being should be afforded.

Acting like pol pot because of what pol pot did does not make his evil deeds leave the earth.

These children who were molested deserved to have their cases investigated.

So you give Pol Pot ( who murdered millions ) of men, women and children more respect than you give a sheriff with no more than allegations? I got it, thanks for your insight.

And it's that kind of bullshit attitude that encourages people to treat others like shit. "Oh let's just sit down and talk to Iran. Surely they are reasonable people and they deserve our respect and compassion." Newsflash for ya babe. A nation that puts little "keys to paradise" around the necks of children and walks them into minefields to clear a path for their soldiers a) can't be reasoned with, b) does not deserve our respect, and c) does not deserve compassion.

Paradise Key
