A man rides up on a motorcycle in front of the stage where Arpaio is speaking, he begins heckling calling the sheriff a 'a liar and a thief.' Arpaio's security detail moves in and soon after the man is wrestled to the ground hard and removed from the event at the tax day tea party rally in Arizona

Which conservatives do you mean? The RINO kind who love amnesty? I can see Sheriff Arpaio turning off quite a few of them. I'm sure McCain has a big problem with him. But then McCain is a backstabbing RINO, not really a conservative.
and I don’t like you, newbie....take a hike moron, and let the real men do their work....long haired hippie type pinko fag...you probably even got a commie flag, tacked up on the inside of your garage
GO JOE!
You know this how?
Friendly advice: Sheriff Joe is well liked here at FR so watch your step.
BS!
Source, please?
Specifics, please, on the dishonest and crooked. I don't need to LIKE someone to approve of their job performance.
It’s all good when it’s “your men” doing the dirty work eh? Well your Sheriff doesn’t exactly have a clean record and is under investigation by the FBI....
Joseph M. “Joe” Arpaio (born June 14, 1932) is the elected Sheriff of Maricopa County in the U.S. state of Arizona. First voted into office in 1992 Arpaio is responsible for law enforcement in Maricopa County. This includes management of the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office, county jail, courtroom security, prisoner transport, service of warrants, and service of process. Arpaio promotes himself as “America’s Toughest Sheriff.”[1][2] He is well known for his outspoken stance against illegal immigration.[3] Arpaio has become a flashpoint for controversy surrounding Arizona’s SB1070 anti-illegal immigration act.[4]
Arpaio is currently the subject of FBI,[5] United States Department of Justice,[6] and Federal Grand Jury[7] investigations for civil rights violations and abuse of power, and is the defendant in a federal class-action suit for racial profiling.[8]
Arpaio has become controversial for aggressive publicity-seeking,[9] retaliation against political enemies,[10] abuse of power,[11] civil rights violations,[12] and financial mismanagement.[13]
Arpaio was once widely popular among voters in Arizona.[14] However, his popularity has waned since 2007.[15]
Just another Donald Trump, only this guy is abusing his power and getting away with it.
I closed my laptop yesterday afternoon with your post (the third on this thread) the latest one. I was wondering what kind of reaction your post would elicit. When my laptop resumed this morning, I see that, faithfully, FR has given you no slack.
Your posts in defense of your original statement demonstrate a fairly obvious lack of critical thinking, to put it mildly. To react with ‘What ever happened to free speech?’ shows your youth in terms of logic and debate, as well as “length of service” here on FreeRepublic. Free speech? What does a constitutional freedom granted to its ctizens offering preventing the government silencing voices of dissent have to do with an inane, random thought posted on a privately held web site? This was the second clue that you’re not able to demonstrate FR-level thinking and analysis.
So then you finally post (rather, lazily copy/pasted - as evidenced by the non-linked footnotes plainly following the verbatim source) comments about how the sheriff is under investigation by the FBI for abuse of power and racial profiling.
FreeRepublic.com is the big leagues, champ. we make it a habit of understanding not just the ‘What’, but the ‘Why’s and the ‘Who’s. In this case, it doesn’t take too much to understand that the FBI investigation is merely a reaction by the Eric Holder Justice Department to the Sheriff’s effective tactics to curb crime within his jurisdiction.
As for posting wikipedia-sourced content (I am assuming that’s where your quote is from, but you didn’t provide a link), well, while wikipedia is fantastic for non-political matters (like what engines were available in 1969 Mustangs), it slants rather obviously to the left in matters of political discourse. That you used it as a source for argument here on FreeRepublic signals to me that you might be a member of the wrong forum.
If the heckler was instructed to leave private property and refused to leave (here in Nevada) it is an arrestable offense.
Is that the same department that's suing Arizona for passing a law allowing Arizona to enforce anti-immigration laws that are already on the books but completely ignored by the same justice department?
I don't see a problem..........
I’m sorry, I didn’t realize FR was a job that required strategic analysis or investment banker insight. I use FR as a place for news and to generally discuss how I feel or think like many others on here. Sheriff J is a crook - and a trumpster on many levels (his antics, and dressing up prisoners in pink jumpsuits). He has been the subject of many Federal inquiries; and these haven’t just happened under President Obama. Having just moved from AZ, I will say he has been losing a lot of support there because folks are catching on to his game. Generally speaking the best law or crime reducing effort that has happened in AZ are the relaxed gun laws. Other then that Sheriff J is a publicity whore and his crazy methods have not really produced a drop in statewide crime that has shown any real results statistically.
