Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio says he will continue his controversial "crime suppression operations" despite a Department of Homeland Security decision to strip him of authority to arrest suspected illegal immigrants based solely on their immigration status, the East Valley Tribune reports.

“It’s all politics,” says Arpaio, sheriff of Maricopa County.
Arpaio will still have the power to check the immigration status of people booked by his officers, but not the authority to conduct street patrols looking for illegal immigrants.

His “crime suppression operations” are saturation patrols in designated areas where deputies would find illegal immigrants by stopping them for traffic infractions and minor violations, the paper says.

The Department of Justice and other federal agencies are investigating the sheriff’s office on accusations of racial profiling during the operations, the paper says.

Arpaio said he will be able to still conduct the crime sweeps under state human smuggling laws and an obscure federal law that allows local police to arrest illegal immigrants.

A spokesman for the Phoenix office of ICE declined to comment until after pending agreements with the country are signed.

Arpaio is a freakin nutwad, I am constantly amazed both that he still has a job, and that no one has lynched his ass yet - some of the conduct he has engaged in makes the alphabet goons look competent and polite by comparison, and that's sayin something.

There's some folk who damn well shouldn't never be wearing a badge, and he's a shining example of why.

Yeah, he's out there, but in a very American sort of way. I'd say he's more of a "character" then a nutwad...the west produces folks like that from time to time.

Gettin' old, but still a hippie at heart...


Ahh "Hero", so he's to be excused as a "character", is he? And how about all the people he's harrassed, profiled, etc.? They're not Caucasian, I guess, so it's okay to do the things he's done/is doing to them. Would that you could be victim of some of this "character"s actions...
