Sheriff Arpaio's letter to Al Sharpton
Maricopa County Sheriff's Office ^ | April 13, 2009 | Sheriff Joe Arpaio

Posted on Tuesday, April 14, 2009 2:51:33 PM by Tarantulas
Reverend Al Sharpton
106 West 145th Street
Harlem, New York City, New York 10039
Fax: 212 690 3070
Dear Reverend Sharpton:
I have read about you with much interest since learning of the protest you plan to lead against me in Maricopa County in June as a way to force my resignation or removal from office.
Your public proclamation leads me to the conclusion: not only do you not understand Arizona; you also do not understand democracy. As the elected Sheriff who, so far has been elected to five consecutive four-year terms, I answer to the four million residents of Maricopa County. I do not answer to the whims of the media, or locally and nationally elected officials who want open borders and who have their own agendas. Nor do I answer to a publicity hound outside interloper who has demonstrated no interest in looking for the truth before making loud uninformed noises.
While your public outcries are colorful, there are several instances where you have inserted yourself into other people's affairs without knowing any of the facts. Poor judgment has caused you plenty of trouble in the past and promises to do so again. Most earnest people want to learn by their mistakes. You seem to glory in repeating them.
I would like to help you avoid further embarrassment by assisting in your understanding of the illegal immigration problem here in my county. When and if you do make the trip here, I invite you to call me to talk about these false allegations.
We can discuss how my deputies are extensively trained by the federal government to properly combat illegal immigration and how the laws of this state allow this Sheriff's Office to question and investigate the immigration status of those people deputies detain in the course of our everyday law enforcement duties.
Don't make the same mistake made by the four Democratic Congressmen calling for a U.S. Department of Justice investigation of this office. They and other politicians relied solely on media reports and anti-law enforcement handouts that are replete with inaccuracies. They have brainwashed a handful of local residents to believe these lies. Rest assured that the men and women of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office do not racially profile anyone.
However, we do enforce the state and federal illegal immigration laws. And we will continue to do so as long as these laws are on the books. You can parachute into town, stomp your feet up and down and hold more press conferences against me -- that is a hallmark of democracy too -- but you will not stop me, nor slow me down for one second, from doing what is right.
Before you bring your circus to town and take to our streets by marching against this Sheriff, let's get you fully informed for a change. Congressman John Conyers did not have the courtesy to respond to my invitation to visit with me personally. I hope you will consider my invitation. Surely, a man like yourself -- a reverend -- who famously preaches from the church pulpit understands the infinite wisdome of these words: You shall know the truth and the truth will set you free. Let's talk about the truth, Reverend. I await your response.
Sincerely,
(signature)
Joe Arpaio
Sheriff, Maricopa County

Re: Sheriff Arpaio's letter to Al Sharpton.......go ...

I wouldn't say I actually like sherrif Joe, he reminds me of a high school dean with a chip on his shoulder,but I really can't stand Al Sharpton. The guy is a complete piece of crap....a lot of you guys only know him in recent years since he somehow(sold his soul) was able to get onto the national stage, but for us who live in NYC he's been a pain in the butt since I was a little kid. There were several cases where he flat out lied, usually about cops or Mayor Guiliani, and was later caught on it but never owns up to, just keep doing it more just like this guy said in his letter. He's a liar, a fraud and he uses racial sensitivity and envokes the names of black leaders like Martin Luther King to further himself.

Re: Sheriff Arpaio's letter to Al Sharpton.......go ...

I LOVE Sheriff Joe - I wish he would run for president I would so vote for him. My hubby is from Phoenix so we are huge fans of Joe.

If your (other GD's) not sure who Sheriff joe is - he is the sheriff who runs the tent city jails. He also dyes the jail uniforms pink and only lets them watch c-span and I think disney channel. He also reads bed time stories every night - LOVE HIM!

As for what you said about Al Sharpton - I agree. He is always starting crap and putting his nose where it should not be and in something for the most part he is wrong about. I also agree that he uses racial sensitivity to get others up in arms.

Re: Sheriff Arpaio's letter to Al Sharpton.......go ...

You got that right, Smartmom! I'm a big fan of Sheriff Joe and what he stands for. If you google him you can find tons of stuff
on how he runs the prison and how actually saves tax payers money in doing it! I'm behind him 100% and as far as Al Sharpton, he is just another Jesse Jackson. Jesse lives off others people money and reputations and both need to keep out of other peoples businesses! Maybe one day Jesse will get a real job and earn his own money??

Suject: Go Arizona!!

GO ARIZONA

With temperatures being even hotter than usual in Phoenix (116 degrees just set a new record), the Associated Press reports:

About 2,000 inmates living in a barbed-wire-surrounded tent encampment at the MaricopaCountyJailhave been given permission to strip down to their government-issued pink boxer shorts.

On Wednesday, hundreds of men wearing boxers were either curled up on their bunk beds or chatted in the tents, which reached 138 degrees inside the week before.

Many were also swathed in wet, pink towels as sweat collected on their chests and dripped down to their pink socks.

"It feels like we are in a furnace," said James Zanzot, an inmate who has lived in the tents for 1 1/2 years. "It's inhumane."

Joe Arpaio, the tough-guy sheriff who created the tent city and long ago started making his prisoners wear pink, and eat bologna sandwiches, is not one bit sympathetic.

He said Wednesday that he told all of the inmates: "It's 120 degrees in Iraq and our soldiers are living in tents too, and they have to wear full battle gear, but they didn't commit any crimes . . . so shut your ___________ mouths."

KIND OF PUTS THINGS IN PERSPECTIVE DOESN'T IT?

exactly neighbor! that man has always been a glorified con artist and a major pain in the a$$. nothing that comes out of his mouth is worth listening to or worth a grain of salt.
