The story, published yesterday, got over 500 comments, which is quite a bit for this paper. But don't think just because they reported it the newspaper things Garcia should be fired.
This morning they published an editorial supporting Isabel Garcia called Garcia, her foes have same rights to speak freely which is a marvel of left-wing propaganda and lies.
They claim it's a free speech issue but nobody is saying Isabel Garcia doesn't have free speech to be in a group that beats up an effigy of a law enforcement officer and then to carry the effigy head around while laughing. She can do that.
People in Tucson are simply writing Pima County Chuck Huckleberry at chh@pima.gov and requesting she be fired for violating basic rules of County Employment and violation of State Legal Bar rules for respecting law enforcement. Remember, she is a Public Defender for Pima County! She is also the head of a radical illegal immigration support group called Coalición de Derechos Humanos.
The radio station host mentioned is Jon Justice of 104.1 FM and is streamed / broadcast / podcast from http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhnn15pCXto. Those radio shows are fun to listen to.
There’s now law against picking up a smashed pinata head and parading it about. This’ll all come down to nothing.
Also remember that "Public Defender" is usually an elected office and, at least in California, subject to recall...
A word to the wise.
Ping!
About time somebody got vocal about this...person.
