MARICOPA COUNTY SHERIFF’S DEPUTIES STILL GOING AFTER HUMAN SMUGGLERS

Sheriff Arpaio in planning stages for armed volunteer posse Illegal Immigration Enforcement Unit

(Maricopa County, AZ) Sheriff Joe Arpaio reports that his deputies last night arrested another 23 illegal aliens in the act of being smuggled through Maricopa County. Last night’s arrest brings the week’s total to 35 illegal aliens arrested while engaging in human smuggling.

The arrests were the result of two traffic stops in the north valley involving two separate vehicles. One vehicle contained 13 occupants and the other 12. During one of the traffic stops, two suspects fled on foot into the desert.

Sheriff Arpaio says, “Even though the media hype surrounding SB 1070 has worn off for now, illegal aliens continue to sneak into the United States through Maricopa County and my deputies continue to pursue them as they have for the past three years.”

The Sheriff will soon implement his plan to commission a volunteer armed posse force outfitted with appropriate hardware and gear to assist in the enforcement of illegal immigration and human smuggling laws.

Sheriff Arpaio has vowed to continue his enforcement of state and federal immigration laws despite recent political and media attention surrounding the issue. During the course of their duties, Maricopa County Sheriff’s officers have been responsible for investigating, arresting and/or identifying over 40,000 illegal aliens.

$2.00 a hide. Heck, his deputies arrested 40,000 last year. That’d be worth $80,000.

"I love the third one...Call 911. Good luck with that."

The sad thing is the text came from an actual sign posted by our Federal government - that's their response to an invasion.

I got an e mail alert from LULAC that “Dingy” Harry Reid will offer up the “Dream Act” as an attachment to the defense appropriations bill next week. Does anyone have confirmation of this? BTW, LULAC stands for the League of United Latin American Citizens and they`re a pro-amnesty group. And the “Dream Act” is another small scale attempt at amnesty for illegals who attend a college or university for two or more years.

“’Armed volunteer posse’

There’s an element of “law enforcement” in the federal fascist government that needs confronting by an “armed citizens posse.”

More the Feds sue and complain, the more Sheriff Joe ramps it up! Joe Arpaio is a worthy model for every sheriff in America. To defy the Washington DC Feds when necessary

There was a story last year about someplace in Nevada that was going to ban guns at some kind of city council meeting in a small town/city. People there heard tell about it, armed themselves and showed up at the council meeting in chambers as a citizenry there. The council backed down. The guy who’d floated the idea & called for a vote said that he’d received a complaint from ‘a resident.’

I had this image of an America straight out of the Old West and thought I was among patriots, just thinking about it.

Actually it’s more of a “well regulated militia”.

When I read the Title, I thought it meant the Unit was Illegal! Probably stems from listening to too much liberal commentary (not used to seeing "illegal" and "immigrant" in the same phrase).
