Homeland Security Chief Janet Napolitano is telling Sheriff Joe Arpaio to stop arresting illegals. Could this be something left over from Ms. Napolitano's feud with the good sheriff when she was the Governor of Arizona?
The sheriff’s office is being investigated by the Department of Justice and other Federal agencies on accusations of racial profiling during the operation of Sheriff Joe's crime suppression operations which the Justice Department is calling racial profiling.
Sheriff Arpaio says "It's all Politics".
In one of his most famous dust-ups with the Government, Arpaio set up a tent city as an extension of the Maricopa County Jail. It was the Sheriff's solution for over-crowding without having to build a new jail. He saved taxpayers over $70m with that action. The prisoners complained about the inhumane conditions of excessive heat inside the tents to which Arpaio replied: "It's 120 degrees in Iraq and our soldiers are living in tents and they didn't commit any crimes!, so shut your mouths!"
In an often e-mailed piece from the Associated press Arpaio has racked up some pretty impressive statistics:
Makes one wonder why Secretary Napolitano doesn't like the good Sheriff's policies. Maybe [sic] she's playing for the other side of the Law. Homeland Security and the Obama Administration are set to strip Joe Arpaio of his main tool for dealing with illegal immigration. Rule 287g which allows for illegals to be detained for traffic violations. Tieing the hands of the good Sheriff seems to be the Democrats favorite sport in Arizona.He has jail meals down to 40 cents a serving and charges the inmates for them.
He stopped smoking and porno magazines in the jails. Took away their weights. Cut off all but "G" movies.
He started chain gangs so the inmates could do free work on county and city projects.
Then he started chain gangs for women so he wouldn't get sued for discrimination.
He took away cable TV until he found out there was a federal court order that required cable TV for jails. So he hooked up the cable TV again only let in the Disney channel and the weather channel.
When asked why the weather channel he replied, so they will know how hot it's gonna be while they are working on my chain gangs.
He cut off coffee since it has zero nutritional value.
When the inmates complained, he told them, "This isn't the Ritz/Carlton. If you don't like it, don't come back."
He bought Newt Gingrich' lecture series on videotape that he pipes into the jails.
When asked by a reporter if he had any lecture series by a Democrat, he replied that a democratic lecture series might explain why a lot of the inmates were in his jails in the first place.
Hopefully, Sheriff Joe will find away around this restriction too. Obama and Henchwoman Napolitano are doing their best to tie the good Sheriff's hands. Seems they are more concerned for the illegals than they are for the American people.
I say we should support Sheriff Joe Arpaio and other's like him. This Country would definitely be a better place if this brand of justice was practiced more often. You go Joe!
