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.

“...or at least training others to be the kind of sheriff he is....”

Count on it. He’s the best.

God bless and protect Sheriff Joe.

“..The guy who’d floated the idea & called for a vote said that he’d received a complaint from ‘a resident.’...”

Actually he received the complaint from a fellow traveler activist.

That’s how this crap works. The left targets small town America, funds a move-in of activists, and starts with “complaints” against Nativity Scenes at Christmas, complaints against firearms’ rights, complaints against everything on the liberal/socialist hit list.

The people there responded perfectly. Force only backs down from larger force - even if it’s only implied force.

This is war for the heart and soul of what we love. Our side needs to wake up to this (and it’s happening).

Because the left sure as hell know it’s war...what did Clauswitz say - “War is a continuation of politics by other means?”

I always wondered what would happen if he asked for volunteers.

I bet he could garner a large number of deputies.

I think Arizona is an open carry state.

This could get very interesting.

What happens when he deputizes 100? 1,000? 5,000? 10,000? 50,000?

Az is a Conceal and Carry State or open carry, No permit necessary. Watch for the deputizing of ALL AZ CITIZENS to enforce Immigration Laws. Sheriff Joe, leading the way to Freedom and Liberty.

"I think Arizona is an open carry state."

I think that open carry has been legal in AZ for many years. I believe that they just legalized concealed carry WITHOUT a license.

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

There is a trial going on on the east coast right now. Family was invaded. Father tied up in basement. Mother & 2 daughters held upstairs.
Mother taken to bank to get money- I think it was $15,000.

It took 33 minutes for her to get the money, while criminals waited outside for her. She was told that if she got the money, no one would get hurt.
She imparted to bank officer what was going on.

Bank officer called 911 & was PUT ON HOLD.

Then she was told to CALL BACK.

This woman was raped , along with her 9 year old daughter.
All 3 women were killed & house set on fire.
Father got himself free & went to neighbor for help. He is now testifying at trial of 2 perps with long criminal histories who were on parole.

Call 911????

Depending on where you live, you can have alot of problems in the 30 ++ minutes it taked for them to get there.

Yes, Dirty Harry intends to attach this DREAM ACT bill to a defense spending bill.

IMO, the DREAM ACR is NOT a small attempt at amnesty. It is bigger than that.

This kind of ‘rider’ is another reason why bvills in any legislature should be ONE ITEM bills only.

Too much stuff gets hidden from the public.
