Arpaio: I'll Cooperate With Investigators

Sheriff Joe Arpaio says he will cooperate with investigators looking into allegations of abuse of power by the sheriff and his office.

"I look forward to giving (investigators) everything that we have," Arpaio said. "Everything on all of the investigations, (and) then I'm going to shut this off."

Mark Gasser said...: The debate whether or not illegals should come here can easily be settled with open eyes and obvious facts, normal people will understand.

Fact 1 Illegals do not pay insurance

Fact 2 Illegals do not pay taxes

Fact 3 Illegals send the money they make to Mexico, Americans spend it here.

Fact 4 Mexico provides 90 percent of the meth in America. It is brought here by the meth backs. You may of hired one if you hire a modern day slave.

Fact 5 90 percent of Columbian Cocaine comes through Mexico. If you hire an illegal you may of hired a transporter of Columbian cocaine.

Fact 6 Most illegals think America owes them and that America is the reason they live in a third world country. For taking their land in an illegal war.
Sub fact a: It was not an illegal war, our congress voted to go to war with Mexico. There for it indeed was a LEGAL war.
Sub fact b: If America gave these states back to the rightful owner, we would give it to the Native North American, Mexico has nothing coming.

Fact 7 The United Majority of America(all loyal Americans) does not need immigrant workers. We don't even have enough work for us, much less work for one here illegally.

Fact 8 The only ones who are for illegal immigration are ones who support breaking the law and the modern day slaves. These people are not the United Majority of America.

Fact 9 There is no facts to support illegal immigration, only law breaker supporters with no facts.

Fact 10 Illegals can not afford the children they have here and the United Majority of America pays to support them and their children.

Fact 11 The United Majority of America can not compete with the wages an illegal is willing to work for. Why? Because Americans do not live with twenty of their family and friends in one three bed room house. We have maybe two incomes per house hold, not twenty-two.

Fact 12 One third of the inmates in tent city and Joe’s other jails are illegals from Mexico.

There is no debate, the illegals must go and it would be great if they would take their supporters with them.

Thanks Joe, for doing what is obviously the only right thing to do, arrest everyone of them you can.

Mark Gasser said...: I did check my sources about meth, YOU better. Yes we here about the small meth labs here on the media. that make ten percent of all the meth in America. In an attempt to take our eyes off the real problem Mexico! Our best ally according to our system ran government. The rest of the meth in America is made in Meth factories then brought here by the meth backs from Mexico Yes, 90 percent of METH in America comes from MEXICO. If this isn't chemical war fare being waged on America, what is? Googgle this if you are un sure.

Anonymous said...: I support Joe 100%! ILLEGAL means not Legal - you are breaking the law. His job is to enforce the law. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Why is the illegal immigration issue any different than murder, robbery, etc??? The whole 'investigation' thing is getting way out of hand by both sides ~ a waste of tax payer dollars. It will be interesting to see how it all shakes out. If he is going overboard investing the county staff so be it; he deserves to be punished just like anyone else breaking the law - Likewise for those investigating him. But his efforts enforcing the law on drunk driving,illegal immigration, dead beat dads, etc are right on target! And, tent city is the best idea yet - what a deterrent for those contemplating committing any crime. A life of tents, bologna, and pink underwear. Go Joe!; January 22, 2010 at 5:41 PM

Fact 2 See Fact 1; January 22, 2010 at 7:18 PM
Anonymous said...: Mark Gasser is correct that almost all of the meth is coming from Mexico. Check the DEA's website. That is part of the reason why a huge drug war is going on there now. In 2009 more than 10,000 Mexican citizens were killed in this violence, I don't know how many were wounded. A large proportion of these deaths were classified as executions. BUT with regard to the Sheriff of Maricopa County:

I just posted this in another thread, but this seems to be the current one. A point to note is that Sheriff Arpaio has gone after many people with the authority and the will to question his job performance. That's why he's under investigation.

"Exceptional clearance" refers to criminal complaints that are dropped, or essentially relegated to the round file without investigation. Sometimes this happens because investigating a criminal complaint would compromise an ongoing investigation by another agency. Phoenix PD, for example, reports a rate of 0.89%, whereas the exceptional clearance rate for MCSO is over 80%! This is very troubling for victims and families of violent crime victims who will never be brought to justice for their crimes. Those families will never get full closure. Perhaps worse is that un-arrested, and therefore un-prosecuted criminals are allowed to victimize other citizens.

Sheriff Arpaio talks often about being tough on crime and on criminals. He calls himself "The Toughest Sheriff in America". The numbers don't back that up. Here, for example (and there are sadly many more verifiable facts) are some excerpts from the East Valley Tribune:

July 10, 2008

Key findings of the Tribune’s project
TRIBUNE

• Deputies are failing to meet the county’s standard for response times on life-threatening emergencies. In 2006 and 2007, patrol cars arrived late two-thirds of the time on more than 6,000 of the most serious calls for service.

• MCSO’s arrest rate has plunged the past two years even as the number of criminal investigations has soared.

• The sheriff’s “saturation” patrols and “crime suppression/anti-illegal immigration” sweeps in Hispanic neighborhoods are done without any evidence of criminal activity, violating federal regulations intended to prevent racial profiling.

• Rampant overtime spending on immigration operations drove the agency into financial crisis and forced it to close facilities across the county. Although MCSO officials have said state and federal grants covered all the expense, illegal immigration arrests actually are costing county taxpayers millions of dollars.

• Despite the money and manpower expended, the sheriff’s office has arrested only low-level participants in human smuggling rings: drop house guards, drivers and the immigrants they ferry.

• Deputies regularly make traffic stops based only on their suspicion that illegal immigrants are inside vehicles. They figure out probable cause after deciding whom to pull over.

These facts have been researched carefully.... Nobody wants a Sheriff who talks about reducing crime but acts in a way that, at best fails to do so, and at worst gives criminals the feeling that they can get away with their crimes. Would that Sheriff Arpaio's performance were in line with his statements. Nobody (other than his political competitors) would be going after him in that case. However, he seems to be constantly campaigning and suppressing scrutiny by those who pay for the operation of the agency he runs. His focus on illegal immigration largely ignores serious crime that must be suppressed, and prosecuted.; January 22, 2010 at 7:42 PM

Anonymous said...: If you don't believe "the system ran media" with their journalists and investigators, what's the alternative- to manufacture facts, and publish them on the Internet, just because it's easy? The media make their money by selling advertising- that is how they are able to exist. Sometimes that influences their reporting. Until there's a better alternative, we have to use our powers of reason to evaluate what they report.

However, there are government reports, especially on crime, that one can find if one is willing to exert the effort. Unless attribution is provided, published facts should be suspect. That is particularly so if the person or organization publishing them has their own agenda- and even more so when they refuse to disclose facts about their motives, makeup, and operation. You can decide to whom this refers.; January 22, 2010 at 7:51 PM
Anonymous said...: I see you rely on your so-called facts in the tribune as part of your media, how nieve!; January 22, 2010 at 7:58 PM
Anonymous said...: Almost Anonymous (MG): If you understand the post I made- there are many sources of information, including government websites (and MCSO is part of government, you know). So "you rely on your so-called facts in the tribune as part of your media" is superficially correct, but not really correct. I use them sometimes. Read on- unless you want to continue to live in a conspiracy fantasy.

We are onto your tactic of trashing the source when you don't like the reports. You didn't invent this tactic. But these (and most) facts are easily verified by looking elsewhere. How long do you think the news agencies would stay in business if they made up their information? Reputation means a lot. People check, you know. There are people that get paid to do that. Did you ever consider that business competitors would love to nail them if they mis-report facts? It happens pretty often. That's why your credibility is zero, except among people who follow personalities instead of finding facts.

Believe it or not, Mark, most people are interested in the truth, and most would prefer that the Sheriff were doing his job rather than be inconvenienced with all this drama and victimized by malfeasance.

Are you aware, for example, that local TV affiliates make the majority of their profit from local news operations? Personally, if I may, I think the news business has gotten all too commercial. They prefer slogans and sound-effects to substance. But that doesn't mean they're worthless. It just means we have to do our homework.

I know you don't want my help, but while "nieve" is a word, I am sure you meant to say "naive". The meanings are quite different!; January 22, 2010 at 8:24 PM

It's just a guess- trying to make sense of nonsense. I apologize to anyone who thinks I am making light of mental illness or those who suffer from it, and to Glenn Beck (not really). That is certainly not my intention.

Of course, most Americans don't speak English and aren't even in the US- since America's almost an entire hemisphere. Xenophobes think the USA is the only "real" America, apparently. So it makes sense why they would buy into the "America's Toughest Sheriff" slogan. Hmmm... not really. I'm going to have to keep working on that.; January 22, 2010 at 8:55 PM

Channel 5 let(pass tense) people choose to post anonymous or with a name that would lead others to your website, if you had one. Until yesterday. This is the second time they have changed their settings in less than 24 hours lol.

First they had an apparent problem with me telling it like it was about them and Joe and disabled the link. After I left comments saying they have an apparent problem with the freedom of speech, they reconnected the link that allowed people to click on my name so people here can view my web page if they wanted to.

But now it has been disabled again! Apparently they have a problem with me exposing who and what the Free Masons are, After I left a message for a Joe Basher to view this blog, you can no longer click on my name to go to my web page. Thanks channel 5, for proving how it is. I assume the ruler of channel 5 is a Free Mason. It wouldn't surprise me one bit. If you want to learn about their ruler and who the Free Masons really are and what their purpose is in our country, here is the link to the blog. Just copy and paste it on your web browser. It’s not as convenient as clicking on my name but still works. If you see an eagle and an American flag in the back ground you are in the right place. The Mason blog(writing) is the first one up.

Anonymous said...: I am a Poe admirer and commend your tastes! I particularly love his poem about his deceased sweetheart, possibly his wife who died young, which I think it entitled "Annabelle Lee". It's short, but oh so sweet. It's also utterly unrelated to Joe Arpaio, who probably wouldn't have liked Poe too much. Poe was a little odd, and didn't carry a gun. And he was intelligent.

One more thing: The plagiarism was without attribution (a hallmark of that offense). This also seems to be a problem with your "facts" in support of Arpaio. Why is that?

Moises Lopez said...: Good morning,

It's common sence that Joe Arpaio is MAD & doing the right thing, which is the LAW. Ofcoarse, he will target all those MAJORITING DRUNK DRIVERS. I've heard rumors that a Mexican Male Drunk Driver Killed Arpaios' daughter. I'm not sure if this is true, if it is then think about how your reaction would affect your authority? Thinking about this makes me angry against drunk drivers.

Not all of us are bad people. My entire family & I are as clean or cleaner than mosT of the high standard Americans out there. We work, pay taxes, help follow neighbors, beleive in all Joe Arpaio does with Tent City, Drug Enforcement, How he deals with illegal anything, Except with deporting us Latinos is unexceptable to how he's doing it.

I've seen huge buses of children being deported, under age like 10-14 yrs, walking them out into Nogales, Mexico deportation fense. This is Gods Land, We only live by his grace. A child is innocent from their parents actions and those your targeting Joe. Please, disregard Joe if this bus with kids in Nogales was not you that had to do with this. I have no kids, yet, I'm just writing what I've seen and heard and feel okay.

Joe Arpaio, why not go after the gang members, drug dealers, extortioners, theives, racist, people, rapiest, and put out much more under covers out there. I'm sure you'll find all you seek, but doing this epedemic deportation is not right. Even if your correct by, LAW YOUR DOING WHAT'S RIGHT. ILLEGALS USE PEOPLES SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS WHICH IF MINE WHERE USED BY ANYONE, ANY RACE, I'D BE FURIOUS, POOR THEM. JEJE...

This is for you Joe Arpaio. Please, Read and put it into practice. It works.

Isaiah 50:1-11 - you should really read it from Isaiah Chapter 48 to Chapter 50. It's just a few pages not much.

I know you have a heart there somewhere, find yourself thru God YHWH which in Hebrew is pronounced Adonai. and thru In the name of Yahushuah Messiah of Nazareth which was translated to Jesus Christ in time.

You will be more at peace with yourself, please, don't ignor this. Trust in him our God YHWH and our Lord In the name of Yahushuah Messiah of Nazareth.

NO MORE ILLEGAL STOP CHECKING IN STORE, HIGHWAYS, STREETS, AVENUES, ETC. At least if there was a crime or an illegal action done by an illegal then YES, DEPORT THEM NOW. WE DO NOT NEED TRASH IN USA. LET'S FIX WHAT WE HAVE...

God Bless All, especially you Joe Arpaio. I know your a good person, just slow down, anger makes your heart go bad and your saliva sour. We are all in this together and must stick together as one. I hope this helps in what your doing now. If it was true that you had a lose in family bcz. of a drunk, I'm sure she's watching us from a palce high above and she would expect you to do and be good.

Anonymous said...: By way of correction (for anyone who's interested). YHWH is known as the tetragrammaton. It is a transliteration into English of the Hebrew letters that represent God's name in Hebrew manuscripts of the scriptures. This is sometimes pronounced "Yahweh" or a variation thereof. The more common Latinized pronunciation of that name is "Jehovah". The Hebrew word "Adonai" means Lord, and is not a name, but a title commonly substituted for God's name because of an nancient Jewish superstition that God's name is too sacred to be pronounced.

"Lord" is a title even given to men of nobility, such as in Great Britain. The tetragrammaton (God's name in Hebrew) appears more than 7,000 times in Hebrew manuscripts of the scriptures. It has been replaced with the title Adonai (or "Lord") in most Bibles. Yet the names of all the false gods in those same manuscripts remain without substitution in those Bibles. The transliteration of the tetragrammaton can still be found a few times in Bibles such as the King James (not the New KJV), the American Standard Version, the Douay Bible and some others. The New International Version contains in it's foreword an explanation of why God's name (or a form of it was removed). The first words of the most widely repeated prayer of Jesus recorded at Matthew 6:9 "hallowed be thy name", then in John 17:6, in his final prayer with his disciples after breaking the bread and blessing the wine- he tells his Father that he had made his name known, in his concluding words of that prayer he repeats the thought (John 17:26).

The person who prompted this clarification goes on to refer to some people as trash. I don't recall a place in the Bible where Jesus calls anyone trash not even the religious leaders who were plotting to murder him. Am I mistaken?; January 23, 2010 at 2:11 PM

You idiots who think that illegal immigration is the only issue will then need to learn to deal with a new regime that works within the law.

He is too busy mugging for the camera and pursuring his personal vendettas. Mark my words: you will be sorry in the long run. Joe has arrested fewer illegals than Phoenix PD, DPS, and the other local police departments. He does not follow up on feloney warrants. Tempe PD busted more than 100 people involved in drug trafficing, including ties to the Mexican Cartel. Meanwhile, Joe was going after Stapley and Wilcox for trumped up charges.

IT finally has caught them without the funds to pay for all of these illegales, PLUS NORMAL AZ EXPENSES. Just because in the past, there was not anyone that worried about them. Now, the number of people in AZ has increased so much, that the state is not getting enough money from all who are working and making money by working here. YOU
don't come here and work for CASH, & LIE about your SS # AND PAY YOUR WAY ! !

If you want to become a legal resident, then do it and do it in the right way. Our Sheriff has been doing a G R E A T J O B, YOU DON'T BELONG HERE- Get off his back. YOU WHO DON'T UNDERSTAND ANY of THIS DON'T MAKE STUPID SUGGESTIONS.
ILLEGALS, don't have any right to be here!

If you come here, then get citizenized ASAP-

IF "U" RETURN HERE AFTER YOU'VE BEEN SENT BACK-THEN YOU SHOULD BE JAILED & PUT ON BREAD & WATER, ONLY

MOST CREATE PROBLEMS FOR ALL OF US.

- You don't know our RULES for living here.
- Too much of NOT FOLLOWING RULES.
- GET into TOO much touble and this COSTS

Anonymous said...: Joe Arpaio is a hero. I don't care what anyone says. If it weren't for him, we wouldn't have space travel or computers. He's way to modest to take credit for that.

He's also the reason that American farmers are the most productive in the world, and the reason we have great plays like "Hamlet", and music like "Beethoven's 9th Symphony". Without hero's like him- children all over the world would only have sticks to play with- no RC cars, video games, or talking dolls. He invented the CAT scan and the MRI, and is responsible for many of the antibiotics that keep people alive and have extended the life span of people all over the world.

He's such a humble man, he never publicizes any of this. He'd rather avoid the limelight. It's a good thing he has a chief Deputy that can help him.

We are so fortunate to have him as our Sheriff. I don't know why he puts up with all the haters. Everyone knows he did all these things and saved mankind from nuclear war. If you don't know that, you're an ignorant idiot. If you don't support him- you must be for killing children, cats and old women.

He's world famous for a reason. When he went to the Vatican and appeared on the balcony with the Pope, this was over a decade ago so you probably don't remember- everyone in Vatican square asked: "Who's that guy with Joe Arpaio". I for one am glad that he got the USSR to tear down the Berlin wall, and open up to outsiders.

Right now he's busy making sure that North Korea is responsible in their use of nuclear weapons, and that the people of Honduras are protected against identity thieves.

Those are just a few reasons that I like Joe. But the main one, by far, is that he's the only person in the country that wants fairness for all citizens. He won't allow people from Mexico to come in and ruin our country. People keep bashing him, but he's so trustworthy that he won't give in to the special interests that want cheap labor.

I don't know what we would do without Joe Arpaio. I hope that he's the Sheriff as long as he wants to be. If you don't know how great he is, why don't you go to Mexico and see how you like it there. Or even just go to Nevada. They don't have anyone like Joe Arpaio.

Please look at my websites. They have lots of information on all the problems we have, and many that Joe has helped us to avoid. There's lots more information on all that he has accomplished throughout the universe using space travel. You don't have a clue- you Joe haters, you Joe bashers. You couldn't even put gas in your car if Joe Arpaio were not the Sheriff. But it wouldn't matter, because you would have to work for a Mexican drug cartel.

This is getting kind of long, so read all of my websites to see what's really happening. Only a few of us really know, you know. The news only bashes him, they never report all the important stuff he does. If you don't agree with this, you need to see a Doctor or a Veterinarian.

You better stand up and defend him or this country and everyone in it is going to not even be here by next year. So get behind Joe, or you'll be sorry.; January 23, 2010 at 7:25 PM

And nobody appointed you spokesman for "we the people". And he's hired some high-priced out-of-state attorneys in the past, and the taxpayers footed the bill. But it appears you don't want to know about that.

Does it matter what a person calls himself politically; don't the taxpayers have a right to see what they're paying for? So why won't Arpaio show ALL the facts and figures for his job performance? If it were as good as he claims, don't you think he'd be all over the TV citing the evidence? Instead he spends his frequent press conferences touting himself and his toughness, without a shred of evidence. The record shows a good deal of malfeasance for those who choose to be informed.

People need to be jailed in your country for holding certain political views. Hmmmm... that's a system that is already in place in other countries. Is that the system you want in America (the USA part of it)?

Blind faith is never a healthy thing. And corruption on Joe's part is just what is being taken care of now in the justice system. Arpaio is on the wrong side of it. Man, are you going to be disillusioned if you pay attention to the facts that convict him.; January 23, 2010 at 8:25 PM

It's odd that you think that every news outlet has an agenda when they report bad info about Arpio (aka NEWS). But you swallow everything he says hook, line, and sinker.

Liz F - North Phoenix said...: To the blogger(s) who are looking for some examples of what Joe Arpaio and his thugs are doing that has caused them to be under intense scrutiny by those of us willing to look beyond the illegal immigration issue, try this on:

During the original attempt at prosecuting Stapley for some vague misconduct counts (152 of them, I think, all of which were dismissed) it was decided that Andrew Thomas and his office could not prosecute Stapley AND represent him as the official legal counsel to the BOS. The MCAO turned the prosecution over to the Yavapi County Attorney's Office. CA Shiela Polk spent 6 months reviewing the charges and declined to prosecute. David Henderschot complained to Chief CA of Yavapi County Dennis McGrane, threatening to "publicize incompetency in the Yavapi County Attorney's Office" if McGrane did not force Polk to comply with the Sheriff's wishes. McGrane responded by informing Henderschot that "the grand jury summons REQUIRES KNOWLEDGE OF A CRIME. In other words, you don't use it to just poke around" to see if you can dig up some dirt on someone.

Polk, and James Walsh of Pinal County, who attended another matter in which Thomas was found to be in conflict of interest and disqualified from pursuing charges, both wrote letters to the Arizona Republic expressing their concerns that the grand jury process was being abused.

Henderschot immediately filed a complaint against Polk with the FBI alledging miscarriage of her duties.

Furthermore, Arpaio sent deputies to the homes of county employees to question them (without warrants or summons) about county business activities. We're talking about clerical and administrative employees being harrassed at home without basis.

Clearly, if you don't squat when Joe (David) says "sh*t" they will use whatever intimidation tactics they find necessary to try to force compliance with their personal agendas / vendettas. These activities in no way benefit the safety of the citizens of Maricopa County.

These are just a couple of the many, many incidents that have occurred. Do you want me to list some more?; January 23, 2010 at 9:40 PM
Liz F - North Phoenix said...: To dovetail on my previous post, since no one in Yavapi or Pinal Counties would agree to continue prosecution against Stapley, Andrew Thomas, who lives in Joe Arpaio's back pocket, decided to hire high priced attorneys from Washington DC - at a cost of several hundred thousand dollars to the Maricopa County taxpayers. The BOS blocked the hiring on the grounds that MCAO had not gotten a spending authorization from the board. So, to court it goes, to be heard by Judge Gary Donahoe.

Gary Donahoe, you might recall, was already in Joe's sites because he had ordered Court Officer Stoddard, who was caught on tape removing documents from a public defender's file during a sentencing hearing, to publicly apologize to the attorney or be found in contempt of court. Joe would not HEAR of anyone calling a press conference (public apology) for the MCSO except himself, and of course, got his mug on TV to tell Donahoe that he (Donahoe) does not have the right or authority make those decisions. Stoddard goes to jail for contempt. The next day, 20 some MCSO court deputies call in sick to work, and there is a bomb threat made to the justice court building.

Ah, but I digress. Suddenly, the day before Gary Donahoe is supposed to rule on whether or not Maricopa County taxpayers will be forced to pick up the tab for some high priced East Coast high profile attornies to prosecute Stapley on charges that have already been turned down in Maricopa, Yavapi and Pinal Counties, SURPRISE! Gary Donahoe is arrested and charged with a bunch of vague obstruction and bribery charges. Candy Andy couldn't even explain what the charges were about. He said something about the new Court Tower and Donahoe would have a robe changing room there and that could be interpreted as a bribe of some sort.

No, actually, it was retaliation against Donahoe for finding Stoddard in contempt (and thereby usurping Joe's ULTIMATE AUTHORITY) and to make sure that Donahoe would not be able to say "NO" to us spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to continue Joe's spat with Stapley.

Now, remember, all of these people that Joe keeps arresting and charging have to hire attornies to defend them. Normally they would use the services of Andrew Thomas, but he's Joe Arpaio's puppet and the one filing the charges for Joe, so most likely not the best choice for your defense. Another funny thing about that, you know the charges against Wilcox for alledgedly failing to fully disclose her financial personal dealings? Guess who advised her on what needed to be included in her filing? Candy Andy's office. Guess who is prosecuting her for alledgedly not doing it correctly? Candy Andy's office.; January 23, 2010 at 9:50 PM

Moises Lopez said...: This message is for the 3rd person which responded after Moises. I

thank you for replying to my comment.

Thank You, for sharing this information you did. It helps people like

myself which I'm learning as I read more and more about GOD. I was

confused with what Adonai actually meant, I appologize.Thanks for

correcting me. Also, my intentions with referring Joe to read Isaiah

chapter 48 thru 50 was meant in a honest polite way & did not at any

time intend to call anyone trash by using the bible. This is how I

meant it.

In Isaiah 48:7-9 was that God was going to tell us the New Good News,

and that we were born rebels from birth. That for his own sake and

honor to his name, he will hold back his anger and not wipe us out.

-meaning- Joe. We are not perfect and are forgiven.
__________
In Isaiah 49:4 - it refers to someone putting all his work in, which

seems useless. Yet, that he leaves it all to the Lord's hand: THAT HE

WILL TRUST GOD FOR HIS REWARD.

-meaning- JOE keep on doing your duties as the LAW says. Without anger

& hostility. Have Faith in God.
____________

In Isaiah 50:4-11 - speaks about God speaking to him and him listening.

He offered his back to those whom beat him and his cheecks to those to

pulled his beard, that he does not hide his face from mockery nor

spitting. Because the Lord helps him and he will not be disgraced.

-meaning- Joe you have done what the LAW says to do, yet, you fight too

hard against them. We need your help, THANK YOU. But is it neccessary

to make this a war, against Mexicans? There is no need. I understand

TENT CITY, haha I admire you for that, WOW. your creative. I've never

been to jail & intend to never be = o) As I was raised WAAaaaaaay Better than that SR. because, I was blessed to have my parents whom I have. There is no need to dirty our nationality but just, those

whom do break the law Sr.
___________
At Isaiah 9 - He refers The Sovereign Lord is on his side. Who will

declare me guilty?

-meaning- Joe, Don't abuse your authority & become an extortioner and no one will question your professionalism nor critic it.
____________

In Isaiah 50:10-11 - says he whom is in darkness without a ray of

light, trust of your GOD. But watch out, you who live in your own light

and warm youself in your own fire. If by that, is the reward he will

give them. That soon they will fall down in great torment.

-meaning- Joe, do not feel PROUD of deporting people, they suffer & most often starve until they get back home if they make it. It's cruel but that's what the law say to Deport them all , right? But when you do, don't feel that you've won. Because, you didn't, all you did is your job and that's it. Being Proud in that way is not Glory. Glory is to fullfill the full ethical rightous authority given to you.
_________
Therefore Joe, Anger is momentary madness, so control your passion or it will control you.

Fact is he's really quite whimpey
So he hides behind Deputy Blimpie.

I've always thought that, to his credit Mark tries, his poetry has a fifth-grader ring to it. Yours is more sophisticated. As for the content- you can't argue with facts!

Mark E. Gasser must be a masochist- he repeatedly holds himself up for scorn. Then he probably thinks he's being persecuted.

Although I myself am a poet, and writer, this subject doesn't inspire verse, but outrage that a public official would get away for so long with what he has. However- keep it coming, Liz!

It's ridiculous on it's face that anyone who doesn't sink to his level of credulity and outright ignorance, he calls ignorant. I can only guess he's lonely.

Mark Gasser said...: EXTRA FACT INCLUDED Yes I posted this before, but it is all the debate we need over illegals and why we need JOE. More evidence has been added to this post

The debate whether or not illegals should come here can easily be settled with open eyes and obvious facts, normal people will understand.

Fact 1 Illegals do not pay insurance

Fact 2 Illegals do not pay taxes

Fact 3 Illegals send the money they make to Mexico, Americans spend it here.

Fact 4 Mexico provides 90 percent of the meth in America. It is brought here by the meth backs. You may of hired one if you hire a modern day slave.

Fact 5 90 percent of Columbian Cocaine comes through Mexico. If you hire an illegal you may of hired a transporter of Columbian cocaine.

Fact 6 Most illegals think America owes them and that America is the reason they live in a third world country. For taking their land in an illegal war.
Sub fact a: It was not an illegal war, our congress voted to go to war with Mexico. There for it indeed was a LEGAL war.
Sub fact b: If America gave these states back to the rightful owner, we would give it to the Native North American, Mexico has nothing coming.

Fact 7 The United Majority of America(all loyal Americans) does not need immigrant workers. We don't even have enough work for us, much less work for one here illegally.

Fact 8 The only ones who are for illegal immigration are ones who support breaking the law and the modern day slaves. These people are not the United Majority of America.

Fact 9 There is no facts to support illegal immigration, only law breaker supporters with no facts.

Fact 10 Illegals can not afford the children they have here and the United Majority of America pays to support them and their children.

Fact 11 The United Majority of America can not compete with the wages an illegal is willing to work for. Why? Because Americans do not live with twenty of their family and friends in one three bed room house. We have maybe two incomes per house hold, not twenty-two.

Fact 12 One third of the inmates in tent city and Joe’s other jails are illegals from Mexico.

Fact 13 It is nearly a twelve hour wait to being seen in our emergency rooms, unless you have bleeding that won't stop or if you can not breath. Why? Because illegals use the ER as if it were a doctors office. This way they will get treated and will not be forced to pay the medical bill before being seen. The bill goes on paid. Costing medical expenses for the ones of us who do pay to keep going up. WE pay THEIR bill

There is no debate, the illegals must go and it would be great if they would take their supporters with them.

Thanks Joe, for doing what is obviously the only right thing to do, arrest everyone of them you can.

Mark Gasser said...: They say Joe don't enforce the law?

I'm not sure why you people say Joe doesn't enforce the law? His sweeps to arrest the modern day slave is enforcing the law and people are mad at him for doing just that.

As far as all the warrants, check the rest of the counties here. If you compare the amount of people in this county and how many deputies Joe has, Joe has far less warrants pending per capita. It takes man power to enforce the law. Joes deputies are not sitting around, they are doing just that.

Had we used that four hundred million for the new court house to hire more deputies, we would have less active warrants out there and less crime in our county. But no, the same county officials claiming Joe's deputies came to debate this waste of money, are going to get a nice new pretty office, instead of the deputies we need to arrest the huge amounts of criminals here. Yes our county would be safer had the money been used to make them safer. Joe is doing a better job than any ohter sheriff could with the resources he has. Not to mention he saved this county billions, something no other politician in this state can take claim to. Nor will any other sheriff after Joe is gone will ever beable to do. Lets hope he never retires, for all good peoples sake. Lets hope he runs for govenor better yet.; January 24, 2010 at 5:48 PM

Joe will not be elected again. If he doesn't find himself incarcerated before the 2012 elections, he will be beat by a candidate within his own party for the Republican spot on the ticket.

You claim that you have open eyes and a normal mind... that is the funniest thing I've read on this board. If your eyes were open, you would look beyond Joe's "tough" stance on illegals to everything else Joe does and doesn't do. Well, as far as the "normal mind" thing goes, YOU were the one posting poetry to Joe at 2:00 in the morning, not me! I don't think that's is "normal" under any circumstances!

"The United Majority of America can not compete with the wages an illegal is willing to work for." And where is this supposedly United Majority? Never heard of it. The name contradicts itself since it is followed by "America".

How you ask? How Joe saves us billions? Are you blind or just a blind sheep? Tent city, that's how.

It's evident Mark makes it all up. Just like he made up "The United something or other". Then he appointed himself the spokesman. They pay him very well in pretend money that he spends in pretend stores. "They" are the voices in his head (what he considers a normal mind).

Your poetry is every bit as good as your spelling! I haven't really seen anyone bashing Arpaio. It's just that people are pointing out documented facts about him. I hope that nobody actually hates him as a person. Many seem to hate his abuses of authority, and what he has done to the taxpayers in Maricopa County under the guise of effective law enforcement.

I have to say, you're entertaining, Mark. It's sort-of like watching a train wreck- it's sad, but you can't look away. And if you really believe you've won anything, you're delusional. Really- delusional! But in all seriousness, I honestly feel kind of guilty not knowing if I am being entertained as a result of you being mentally ill. I don't know whether you've been diagnosed- but it is not unlikely.

What do you say- shall we take a vote and see how much of a "majority" you have? Those like me who post as anonymous will need to use some initials (even of a pet or a neighbor) or an alias in their posts so we can have an unscientific means of seeing whether someone's posted more than once.

You don't know what a fact is. Unfortunately that sounds like an exaggeration.

As far as Liz is concerned- making up stuff about her personal appearance, and her name (which you keep getting wrong), doesn't prove anything other than that you have a very casual relationship with reality. She told you what her last name is.

Is your reading as poor as your writing? You wouldn't know the answer to that, unfortunately.

If you said that Joe Arpaio is the Sheriff of Maricopa County- a fact widely reported (due largely to his efforts, I might add)- that alone would call it into question. Your credibility with people who can read, is ZERO. Among those who can also reason, it's less than that.

You can call me all the names you like. I doubt you know what any of them mean. You might be copying them from another blog for all I know.

It hurts to say it, but I have obviously been wasting my time posting here. Arpaio will be prosecuted and Gasser will have to move on to another fantasy world. Or maybe he'll delude himself into thinking this was part of Arpaio's plan to work undercover in the prison system. Who knows?

Anonymous said...: It reminds me of grade school, sort-of (as do some of you-know-who's comments). The teacher wanted all the kids to learn, and many wanted to do that, and even enjoyed learning. Some just grudgingly went to class, and learned anyway.

Then there was that boy (always a boy, for some sociological reason) who made it a point to distract the other kids. For him, a failing grade was a badge (pun intended), and causing others to fail made him feel better about himself. He wasn't necessarily stupid, but maybe he felt he was, or his abusive parent or parents made him feel that way. However, he wanted to stay in the comfort zone of his ignorance. No amount of encouragement about the value of education would prompt that boy to change. In fact, perhaps the urgings of the teacher steeled his determination to keep others at his level.

And so it is with this blog. On one hand if the thinking people stop wasting their time by posting the established and researched facts, the only remaining voice will be the voice of ignorance that tries to inflict itself upon a majority of its own making. On the other hand the people who want to know the facts (the real ones)- can simply look at old posts. Will they do that?

People who want to be educated will find a way. History bears this out. Those who use ignorance as a weapon of oppression cannot triumph against such people. However, the merely curious who might listen to the arguments, but won't educate themselves- some of them will investigate further based upon what they hear (or read). So posting might have an effect on such ones, and maybe it would be irresponsible to abandon them to the rants and ramblings of that boy in class who refuses to learn.; January 24, 2010 at 10:48 PM
Mark Gasser said...: They proved they are blind sheep, with their own words!

The people who have hate in their life and hate Joe. Keep saying my post are not factual. Lol. The truth is, everything I posted is fact, that so far, no one here has been able to disprove. No, you didn't see all the facts I posted on our local news. So your point is what exactly? Fact, the local news doesn’t tell it like it really is, only how the system wants them to tell it.

The ones who try to prove me wrong with investigation, find out and say, “hmm, I guess Mark was right.” Like senior anonymous writing a whole page saying, most of the meth in America, is made in America, like the media here brained washed him into believing. Telling me to look at his home town and most meth is made here and used in close proximity to where it was made. But when he actually investigated this, he found out the media was wrong and I was right. That yes indeed, 90 percent of meth in America is made in Mexico and comes here with the meth backs.

Who are the meth backs?
The meth backs, once they sell their meth to our children more times than not, become modern day slaves. Working for cheap with out a contractor license and without paying any taxes. The Mexican meth is their money to get here, they don’t have any money when they come here. Remember, the bashers own words, “they come here to make money.” The money they make is sent back to Mexico. So one of their family members can buy some Mexican made meth and become a meth back first, and a modern day slave second. This is a circle of death for our children! Children do stupid things sometimes. But they only have to be stupid once when it comes to meth. Just one time doing this drug and many are addicted! Insuring a market for the next meth back that comes. Now we have a meth epidemic in America! So the slave masters here can have their modern day slave? Nuts for sure. Yes this is chemical war fare as far as I’m concerned. Many of children here fall to the meth addiction, so our rich can have more money, than what they would have if they obeyed our laws.

Do you people understand why Joe has round ups for illegals? Something no other police agency does. The bashers say other law enforcement agencies arrest more illegals than Joe. DPS is one that does, and they never did a round up. So why are they arresting more illegals than Joe’s deputies? Because these illegals are breaking our laws, that’s why. They get more simply because DPS is a much large police force than Joe’s, with many more law officers than Joe. If DPS started doing round ups too, the meth epidemic wouldn’t be in AZ.

I know I know, the bashers are going to be bitching and calling me names. Let them. They can run from the truth but they can't hide from it.; January 25, 2010 at 4:24 AM

They prove their hateful being and attack me now. lol Do you think it hurts me when you people prove your ignorance and childish mentality? No, not one bit, I enjoy watching you all make fools of your selves. No, the Joe bashers will never take a vote from Joe, with their non facts and bashing of anyone. If anyone thinks Joe is wrong, don’t vote for him. Thank God the majority knows best and will vote him back into office. If you want to be on the winning side, vote for Joe.

We know who the biggest blind sheep are here, anonymous senior and anonymous Liz. They repeatedly make fools out of them selves with their childish name calling and facts from our media, that I keep proving are fictional, not factual.

What is a Fact?
Definition; Something that can be proven or disproved.

Fact, no one has disproved one of my facts here yet, so instead they prove their true colors of being full of hate and ignorance, in an attempt to prove me wrong.

Anonymous said...: Marks sources are secret, and oh so much better than the "news" outlets. Can't you tell by his posts?

Whenever someone says: "What most people don't know..." RUN AWAY! They think they have some superior source of news- what used to be called a conspiracy rag.

Let's face it: Most "legit" news operations exist to make profits by selling advertising. A few profit by selling their journalism. Sometimes their reports are inaccurate, even biased. In many cases when that happens their competitors will nail them in an attempt to gain competitive advantage.

Then you have greedy fools and kooks selling fake news to the gullible ("what most people don't know"). What those poor, gullible slobs don't realize is that they are not becoming enlightened, but are making themselves victims. Now they are in a position to try to convince others that they alone are right- it's an ego defense/coping mechanism. It's maladaptive.

Adults in a civilization have the personal responsibility to be informed and evaluate for themselves what is fact, and what is exaggeration or outright fiction. Sorry Mark, you lose. It's a choice you make, and keep making. Name calling and labeling isn't going to change the facts. There are too many adults watching.; January 25, 2010 at 11:33 AM

He will have to pay for breaking the law.

Anonymous said...: Won't someone who tells us how great Joe is at enforcing the law, please provide some figures to back that up? If you can also post the figures for some other law enforcement agencies, that would be great. Those of us who have posted such figures (all that we've been able to find) think he's doing a lousy job of enforcing the law. It's not that we don't want him to- it's just that he's not. That's what the available figures show.

So show us some figures. We seen the legend of the "Toughest Sheriff.." already, thank you. Show us the historical facts, if you please.

I know, it's a very juvenile approach isn't it- I've heard that one too, along with all the other name calling. The people who pay his salary and all the court judgments against him have a right to know the truth about his job performance. Period.

You keep posting your PR propaganda, and others will post the available facts and figures. They are at odds. Where are your facts and figures? The only reason anyone has thought of for you not to post them is that they expose Arpaio as an ineffective enforcer of the law, and you people want to promote his legend despite the facts.; January 25, 2010 at 12:37 PM

It is entitled "Mission Unaccomplished: The Misplaced Priorities of the Maricopa County Sheriff ’s Office". They cite all of the sources of the information published therein. It is pretty lengthy (about 20 pages), but worth reading if you want facts about MCSO's performance. It is available free-of-charge here: http://www.goldwaterinstitute.org/Common/Img/Mission%20Unaccomplished.pdf

1) Does anyone know of a more recent or more thorough study?

2) Can anyone refute any of the facts published therein? You will need to cite your sources of information as they did.

I've seen posts by Mark Gasser complaining about the report, and assailing the authors, but nothing from him that refutes any of the facts it contains. So name-calling doesn't qualify as logic or reason. Spare me such meaningless argument. I am looking for facts that can be substantiated. Please come forward if you have any of those or know of another scholarly work examining these issues.

Anonymous said...: I support Joe 100%! ILLEGAL means not Legal - you are breaking the law. His job is to enforce the law. If you break the law you pay the penalty. Why is the illegal immigration issue any different than murder, robbery, etc??? The whole 'investigation' thing is getting way out of hand by both sides ~ a waste of tax payer dollars. It will be interesting to see how it all shakes out. If he is going overboard investing the county staff so be it; he deserves to be punished just like anyone else breaking the law - Likewise for those investigating him. But his efforts enforcing the law on drunk driving,illegal immigration, dead beat dads, etc are right on target! And, tent city is the best idea yet - what a deterrent for those contemplating committing any crime. A life of tents, bologna, and pink underwear. Go Joe!; January 25, 2010 at 1:20 PM
Anonymous said...: Abuse of power is the main issue I have with the sheriff. If he is found guilty then I am for removing him from office. The illegals issue is a different matter.

It's not unimportant, but you know Joe's authority in that area has been severely curtailed by his own malfeasance and lust for the limelight? Also nobody supporting Arpaio has posted a single figure even demonstrating that his "immigration enforcement activities" were even effective.

So how about addressing the real issues: Is he fit to enforce AZ laws (that is plural)? Will he lose his job by prosecution? On what basis do you so answer (insert facts and figures attributed to sources that can be verified)? The rest is just spitting into the wind.; January 25, 2010 at 1:38 PM
Mark Gasser said...: Goldwater lol lol lol

Let me guess, Barry Goldwater is your hero lol again. For those who don't know Goldwater, he ran for president for the Republican party. Goldwater still holds the record for being crushed by his Democratic opponent. He was disgraced in the election and he is a disgrace today still. He planned to nuke Vietnam had he got elected. No BULL. Googgle that if you want. He was too right winged for even the rights! Lol but all TOO true. The Republican party wants nothing to do with this psychopath. Now we have the Goldwater institute. That no one but maybe a communist wants any part of.

Senior anonymous is an extreme right, more like a communist than anything. He is politically motivated but too politically motivated. He says I'm being paid by Joe. I'm not, but an interesting concept. He is on here everyday, and always makes sure his post is the last one up. It is more than clear he is being paid by a communist party or cult that wants our honest politicians to lose. So they have a better chance at buying the less honest ones. DO NOT lessen to a word this crazy idiot says, for America and Democracies sake.

Then Senior anonymous says “Thank you,” after his long babbling on, as if lecturing to his cult lol.

He says I’m unemployed, and then says I work for Joe. It is very clear what motivates this idiot and who is PAYING him, his cult or communist boss or both. The same ones that use the meth backs I am willing to bet. They need to get their money for their extreme views somehow. Meth is the only chance they have for money.

NO ONE in their right mind will contribute a dime to Senior anonymous or his boss. So he does what he can to insure the meth backs can come here without Joe arresting them. Not even a good try from this moron. Who ever is paying him, is wasting their money!; January 25, 2010 at 1:45 PM

I didn't say you were unemployed, then ask if you work for Joe. That's contradictory, isn't it? Too hard to understand? Then never mind.

You seem to know more about him than I do. You seem to be better informed about him than you are about Arpaio. "Seem" being the operative word- you make your facts up to suit convenience. But you have yet again failed to prove anything. Your guesses about me and my views are way off. I don't care if I can convince you of that, but I would love to see your expression were you to find out how wrong you are about me, my views, my motivations. You want to make this about you- go stuff your ego elsewhere. This is about the Sheriff. Can you understand that?

Given your history of long-winded storytelling (all fiction, I might add)- I will exempt you from proving anything. You obviously lack the capability. Why are you so worried about provable facts regarding Arpaio's office? Despite your protestations you obviously have very little faith in him, and don't want the facts to be made widely known. Frankly, you and two others seem to be the only ones who give a whit what you think (I might've overestimated by up to 66%).
