Arizona sheriff launches immigration sweep

PHOENIX – The Maricopa County Sheriff's Office in Arizona has launched
a two-day, countywide crime and immigration sweep that authorities say
will focus on drop houses, drug violators and human smuggling
vehicles.

Four hundred deputies and volunteer posse members are taking part in
the patrols. The sweep, which began Thursday, is Sheriff Joe Arpaio's
14th since early 2008.

During the sweeps, deputies flood an area of a city — in some cases
heavily Latino areas — to seek out traffic violators and arrest other
alleged lawbreakers.

Critics (Hispanic Fifth Column traitors) say Arpaio's deputies have
racially profiled Hispanics. The sheriff says deputies approach people
only when they have probable cause to believe people have committed
crimes.

Arizona is blessed to have Arpaio in office. Compare his actions to
the
failure of the central government.


1. There's nothing in the article indicating the sheriff is conducting
an "immigration sweep." He is arresting violators of state and local
law, as he should.

2. The Supreme Court cases Mack v. US and Printz v. US state that the
feds cannot force local sheriffs to enforce federal law.

3. The no good scumbag who encouraged illegals to stay in this country
by awarding them amnesty was St. Ronald Reagan. Why conservatives
idolize such a man -- whose tax policies caused the National Debt to
skyrocket as a percent of GDP, and whose energy policies kept us more
dependent on the goodwill of radical Islamists than ever -- I will
never know.
