Arizona, a flashpoint in the immigration debate, holds its presidential primary Tuesday. And Donald Trump, who will hold a rally there Saturday, has a big endorsement from the state: the famous hard-line anti-immigration sheriff Joe Arpaio.

Frankly, *I am* hoping Trump declares a moratorium on all new immigration.
At least until we get our systemic INS failure rectified.
Under Obama we’re getting flooded with Somalians, Syrians, Mexicans, central Americans and all types of political asylum fakers and deadbeats more interested in jihad and living free than breathing free.
I hope Trump puts the INS right up there with the EPA, DHS and BLM.
The INS should be re-built from the ground up with people more concerned with admitting assets and barring liabilities over protecting their careers, from administrative judges to regional commanders.
The guys out in the field doing the ‘heavy lifting’ do the best they can. Recall that some of them actually sued the INS a while back. Trump will provide the leadership they need and Sheriff Joe knows it.
We need to reduce legal immigration substantially and stop illegal aliens from entering.
I think there is a remedy to this problem with the semantics. Permit me to use your post as a reply and, an excuse to vent. There is a point to be made about the entire process that goes on with these illegals that makes them susceptible to do stuff that the legals do not do.
I prefer to call them illegal border crossers. I think it perfectly describes what they are doing. When I go into Canada, I have to show the border agent my Enhanced Washington State I.D. card. It has embedded a microchip with all of my personal data. It works just like a passport and it can be scanned. They scan it when I get on the Clipper and go over to Victoria, Vancouver Island. They also scan it when I come back. I am a legal border crosser.
Now if I took a row boat over and beached on a remote stretch, I am an illegal border crosser. Also, I am in a different situation. I have no place to stay and, if I have no job, I’ll need a way to pay my way until I get a job. I can also make lots of under the table money. This causes me to operate like the typical border crossers. I could live off a big wad of Canadian money I packed in my backpack. However, I can make more money with a backpack full of meth or heroin. One gram of heroin is the size of a sugar packet and costs between $150-250 in Victoria (I looked up the current price). A backpack with two kilos of heroin might bring $200,000. Once I make my connection, I go back home and live like a king. However, in order to deliver my 2 kilos of heroin, I need a place to stay. Perhaps I might find a granny with a Purple Heart and do to her what those savage illegal border crossers do. I’d do anything for a place to hang out while I cash in on those stupid Canadian addicts.
The above is what I imagine is the mindset of the illegal border crosser. For those stupid addicts, he is a hero. For those corrupt city officials, he is a hero too. A little under the table money if money for doing nothing.
That’s why I hate those illegal border crossers. There is no control over what they do because the are virtually hidden—under the table. And once they get back to where they come from, there is no way you can find them for what they did.
Anyhow, Joe is boots on the ground in Arizona.
If Latinos start voting republican, the democrats will have them deported, put in camps to stage them for such, or just outright have them buried in a desert.
Let’s get some muscle over here.
Sheriff Arpaio endorsed Trump back in January.
He is not anti immigration. Stinking liars.
He is anti invasion.
Yeah in WWII we were anti European and anti Asian, right? Maybe we were anti freedom of the seas because we didn’t like Nazi U boats.
Probably anti mustache (Hitler) and anti religious because Emperor Hirohito was a god.
And Trump attacked himself on stage, threatened his own son, destroyed cars in Cleveland.
Don’t take this crap. Fight back. Illegals are the direct opposite of immigration.
A biased headline.
However Legal immigration is a big problem in this country. Probably bigger than illegal immigration because there’s more of it. Most Muslim immigrants are legal. But the growth of Islam in our homeland is suicide. The hispanics who elect democrats, ruin schools, and demand affirmative action preferences forever - are mostly legal too.
He’s been doing that since the beginning. I guess you haven’t been listening.
He has - some just can't help but to cling to "he's gonna give them all amnesty and put in special gates as he builds the wall".
Where you been?
Pro
LEGAL
Immigration
To the American middle class both are equally destructive and bad.
A nation that is systematically hollowing out it’s economy by off shoring its industrial base doesn’t need any more immigrants of any kind, ever again. Welcome to post industrial America.
“Trump better get on the ball and differentiate between legal and illegal immigrants.”
He did that on the day he announced in June 2015. Pay attention or don’t post. Ignorance of the issues does not reflect well on posters.
I believe it’s anti-ILLEGAL immigration, npr.
But then again y’all have obfuscated this so long it hardly makes a difference anymore.
He does already, in every speech. Often many time.
Living in ignorance and darkness as you are must be a hell of a way to be going through life.
NPR lying, as usual. The sheriff is not anti-immigration; he is anti-ILLEGAL immigration.
