Immigrant rights protesters were back in front of Pruitt's furniture store near 36th Street and Thomas Road Tuesday morning.

They claim the owner of the store hired Maricopa County sheriff's deputies to patrol against day laborers last Saturday.

It appears the sheriff's office believed that protests planned for the site were supposed to begin that day.

"We witnessed the four officers sitting in their vehicles, getting paid with taxpayers' money, wasting gas, looking at us," he said.

Manteca claims the Pruitt's owner has hired the sheriff's department to patrol the store at taxpayers' expense.

Sounds like they were doing the job they are trained and paid to do.

Exactly! I'm tired of hearing arrogant police chiefs, like LA's William Bratton, telling us that they're not in the business of enforcing immigration laws. Meanwhile, Sheriff Joe Arpaio and his deputies are becoming American folk heros.
