Arpaio cites non-existent law in his argument for crime sweeps

[I AM NOT THAT GUY 5,715]

"evasive, nervous, or erratic behavior; dress or speech indicating foreign citizenship; and presence in an area known to contain a concentration of illegal aliens" can be used to constitute reasonable suspicions someone is in the country illegally.

so, if i talk like Cheech.. that's reasonable suspicion according to Arpaio? sounds so legal and non-discriminatory lol

It beggars belief that there are people like Arpaio in positions of authority.

Arpaio continues to earn the support of Maricopa County voters who reelected him sheriff by double-digit margins in 1996, 2000, 2004 and 2008. In 2007 a petition to recall Arpaio from office failed to gain enough voter signatures to get on the ballot. In a survey taken by the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication while the petition was in circulation, nearly three out of four respondents opposed the recall, and 65 percent of the respondents held a positive opinion of Arpaio.

He occupies an elected office. Evidently, he is doing the job he was elected to do.

That doesn't say anything positive about the electorate.

Evidently they like having a modern equivalent of the sheriff of nottingham.
