Unhinged in Arizona: Open-borders mob, led by public official, ravages Joe Arpaio effigy

By Michelle Malkin • July 15, 2008 03:34 PM

Scroll down for updates…Jon Justice has more…

Reader Tim C. in Tucscon sent me an e-mail about some completely unhinged open-borders activists who mobbed a book event for Sheriff Joe Arpaio. A group of young pro-illegal alien protesters repeatedly beats an effigy of Arpaio as Isabel Garcia–local reconquistadora and an official from the Pima County legal defender’s office–eggs them on. She then parades around with the effigy’s head as onlookers cheer and hoist up the rest of the battered body.

And they call us uncivil?

Unbelievable.

Watch the video for yourselves:

Sounds like Sheriff Arpaio is doing something right. Good for him.

I hope that Sheriff Joe has an occasion to arrest her for some infraction some time.

If we tried that in Mexico, we would end up in a ditch with a bullet in our heads. But these are the types of folks McAmnesty embraces. He does`nt even have the guts to defend our border agents from slander.

Considering how mexicans treat law enforcement officials in their own country, with midnight murders, family kidnappings, etc. Sheriff Joe should consider sending his family out of the area for the duration of the war so they can’t be used against him.

Because these criminals invaders aren’t going to stop until the U.S. looks like Nuevo Laredo and points south or they are all shoved back into the fetid cesspool they crawled out of.

What is it about crossing our border that embues bravery, righteousness, and a sense of justice.

Mexico remains full of cowards, that will neither say or do anything to stop the unbridled corruption of their government, the brutality of their police, or the terrorism of their drug dealing gangs.

Once here, they miraculously find a voice.

Are there other real Americans left or have they all turned into girly-men? Pathetic.

...yep, this kind of stuff is just another little milestone on the road to the coming race war...see Thomas Chittum’s “Civil War Two: The Coming Breakup of America”
ISBN 0-929408-17-9 distributed in the USA by American Eagle Publications, Show Low, AZ [520-537-5512]....wars of secession and partition are a global reality...in time, I expect they will come here too.

Tucson is a dead city with a population nearing one million. It is dead politically, economically and socially. The city council and the county are exclusively Democrat. The mayor of Tucson is a feckless go-along get-along Republican. Consequently, the city cannot attract businesses given its repulsive taxation schemes. There is significant cultural tension as wealthy people who pay the taxes live in the foothills, while the Mexican and illegal immigrant population occupy a dead downtown and South Tucson. Murders as a percentage of the population are higher than Detroit. Efforts to revive downtown Tucson have stalled. It is likely that the annual gem show will move to Las Vegas, and baseball spring training will soon exit. And the Isabel Garcias just keep beating their drums while the Tucson papers give more and more print to their radical pronouncements. In sum, Tucson is a joke. A bad joke.

Nah, beheadings is their real specialty. I think Mexico is “ahead” of Iraq in that area. They’ve surpassed them in Amerian kidnappings.

I wouldn't put it past him if she gave him the opportunity. She lives in Pima County (Tucson), and he's the Maricopa County (Phoenix) Sheriff.

She'd have to do something wrong in Phoenix, and I don't think she's that dumb. Then again...

I wouldn’t go that far. Our murder rate is 1/3 of Detroit’s and actually a tick under the US average ( http://www.clrsearch.com/RSS/Compare?demographic=CompareCrimeStatistics.jsp&zipcode=85712&type=community&fips_state=4&fips_county=19&fips_city=77000&zipcode2=detroit+mi ). The Gem and Mineral Show isn’t going anywhere. Cultural tension? Not really, I suppose there’s grumblings in the bario neighborhoods but there always are, that’s what poor neighborhood are for. Efforts to “revive” downtown were stupid anyway, and not rubber stamping that crap was one of the promises Walkup ran on then ignored, and really downtown’s coming up pretty well even with the government funded parts stalling.

Yeah the elected officials are all idiots. But Tucson itself muddles along as a quietly enjoyable place to live. We have problems, but they really aren’t that big a deal.

Sorry, I should have written that South Tucson has a higher murder rate (according to the Red Star Over Tucson newspaper of some four months ago) than Detroit. As for your comment that downtown Tucson is coming along; it is a dump so has a long way to go. Is Tucson a pleasant place to live? Sure, if you are homeless, on welfare, are a college professor, retired on a good pension plan, move drugs, or can pay the taxes. It would seem that the outlying suburbs, Oro Valley, Marana, Vale, Sahuarita have learned from Tucson how not to govern, and all seem to be growing faster.

South Tucson is, thankfully, it’s own little square mile of crud. It’s always sucked.

Sorry bub but Tucson is a fine place to live for normal people with actual jobs. Been here 30 years and know that you are just basically full of @#$%.

Born in Benson a long time ago. And I know whereof I speak. If it weren’t for Raytheon and the University of A, Tucson would dry up and blow away. Hell, even Jim Click is moving to Marana.

Oooh Benson, a long time ago, guess that makes you an expert. I’ve lived in Tucson for over 30 years and know that you are full of crap. You conveniently forget some of our other major employers like IBM, DM, Burr Brown, Pima College. We’ve got a lot going on here. A lot more than Benson which for all intents and purposes already dried up and blew away.

Because they will vote. They will vote for the candidate who tells them that they will give them more than their opponent. This will give them more power and control. they will use their unlawful activities to enact more restrictive laws. They will enforce those laws on us and ignore them.

It is all about the destruction of the United States so that the politicans can increase their control and power.

Paragraph number 2 states it in its most simple form.

There’s two major differences between NO and Tucson.
1 - We’re nearly disasterless here. Not disaster proof, just situated such in the world that none of that nasty stuff happens. The worst flood we’ve had here in my 30 years shut down the city for hours, a couple fringe areas were cut off for a day or two. No earthquakes, no volcanoes, and while we technically are in the rear end of tornado alley we’ve had only 2 or 3 touchdown while I’ve been here and the longest was like 30 seconds. So a Katrina like situation to bring out the worst in us is just not gonna happen.
2 - we’re growing not shrinking. NO had a shrinking population even before Katrina. It was a city with definitely problems outside of the government, including a disaffected population that didn’t want to be there anymore.

I honestly believe most places are good in spite of their government not because of it. By and large government just gets in the way of everything that’s good and interesting about humanity.
