Sheriff Arpaio gets schooled

[BrainGlutton]

It’s Schadenfreude time!

A U.S. federal judge on Tuesday ordered a controversial Arizona sheriff to undergo the same training as his deputies to prevent racial profiling and unlawful detention in the wake of the lawman’s recent comments.

U.S. District Court Judge Murray Snow criticized sheriff Joe Arpaio during a hearing in Phoenix for telling a reporter he would have no problem conducting an immigration sweep like one performed in the town of Guadalupe in 2008, which was later declared unconstitutional.

The judge ruled in May 2013 that Arpaio, who bills himself as “America’s Toughest Sheriff,” violated the rights of Latino drivers with his crackdown on illegal immigration and ordered him to stop using race as a factor in law enforcement decisions.

Snow said Arpaio’s recent comments undermined his office’s efforts to comply with the ruling.

This is going to be a fun class!

And Arizona puts up with this nutmuffin.

I’m looking forward to him trying to arrest the judge.

Well, Maricopa County does, anyway. Still, considering that county includes a major metropolitan city, Phoenix, it is rather perplexing how he keeps getting re-elected.

I’ve met him 2X. He’s completely senile.

I guess given how bad things look for your side these days, I’m not surprised that you would glom onto this as some sort of bright spot. The judge is an idiot, just like you. Arpaio does his job very well. So well, they should put him in charge of the whole border. But enjoy your glee. While you can.

Thank God for Joe Arpaio, selflessly and bravely investigating Barack Obama’s birth certificate. We certainly need more men like him willing to bravely deny reality.

If you think Arpaio should be in charge of the border, you’re stupider than I thought.

Which is saying something.

I suspect this may make him more popular with his constituents, not less.

A public battle with a Federal Judge? I think they just answered Sheriff Joe’s prayers.

Nah, he’d go off-script the first week on the job. Whenever your side launches wars on poor countries, you like to pretend they started it.

Not everyone. I haven’t voted for him ever. I don’t “put up with”, I “endure”. Like a head cold. Or cancer. This, too, shall pass.

You do know how elections work? It’s not like I can personally remove him from office.

I’d pay money to see the teacher make him write “I will not engage in racial profiling” 500 times.

That sounds amazingly like a threat. What’s going to happen to curtail our glee? Arpaio and his jackbooted thugs will cross into California and arrest me?

The Southwest is going to grow browner and browner with every decade and there is absolutely nothing you or Arpaio or the border patrol or the Minutemen or any Pub POTUS or Congress can do to stop that. So, enjoy . . . while you can . . .

Maybe Arizona could offer to stop selling water and electrical power to California? Again.

At least until you (or maybe your neighbors? ) turn yourself in.

You jest, but It seems that magellan01 continues to follow stupid birthers (that just by coincidence :rolleyes: are nativists or racists), he never learned from the past fiasco of relying on Jerome Corsi and the Washington “moonie” Times.

Another unpleasant Obama association

I don’t know how Arizona works, but in many states, the cities are not considered part of the counties that surround them. So all those well-edumacated city folk may not have any say in who gets elected in Maricopa county.
