Interesting conversation. Both sides raise some good arguments.

Here's an article about it on The Raw Story:

    Bill Maher is also part of the problem. I watched him attempt to degrade Sheriff Joe Arapio about his tent city and end up looking like the hate mongering fool that he is. On this he is actually on point. But even a broken clock is right twice a day.

      I haven't seen the particular segment you're referring to, but I do know that Sheriff Joe Arpaio is incredibly racist, and the laws he advocated were directly aimed at persecuting ethnic minorities.

        Maph, I know the man, interviewed him twice professionally and met him dozens of times...I live in Arizona. I know the illegal alien problem we have and the degenerative issues associated with it. You have no freakin clue what your talking about.

          Yeah, I've seen enough of your posts to know that you yourself lack the ability to recognize racism when you see it, so I'm not surprised that you couldn't recognize it in him. The whole concept of "illegal" immigration is inherently racist in and of itself. Immigration should never be illegal.

          Rolling Stone did an article on Joe a couple years ago. You can read it here:

            Up until this moment I gave you a modicum of respect despite our differing view. Screw you.

            the rolling stone is no longer a solid musical magazine its leftist trash not worth the paper its printed on. They sent me a year for free..I canceled after 3 editions. It doesn't surprise me at all that you see this as reliable and accurate journalism.

              If you don't like Rolling Stone, here's a segment from Larry King Live in which Reverend Al Sharpton clearly articulates what was wrong with Sheriff Joe Arpaio's approach:

                  AJ;

                  As I've pointed out in other threads, Maphesdus' goal is not the pursuit of truth, it's to distract from the pursuit of truth. He's a shill, easily defeated by not giving him your time or effort.

                  I'd be interested to hear more about your interviews with Arpaio.

                    I may still have one or more on audio. If I can locate it, its been some years, I'll link it.

                    Arapio is as honorable a person as I've ever met. He politically supports those he knows to be honest and well meaning (not just republicans) regardless of public outcry. He has said countless times that he executes the laws on the books and nothing more. And If people want him to stop than change the law. Arapio is the ONLY person in authority doing a damn thing to slow this deluge of illegals coming into Maricopa county and turning into a violent, drug filled, welfare ridden, danger zone.

                    The lives destroyed by and the blood shed by illegal aliens sits firmly on the hands of people like Mephesdus.

                      Had you lived in South Africa, I bet you would have been gushing all over Dr. Hendrik Verwoerd...

                      If you want to solve the issues surrounding gang and drug violence, the solution is to end the war on drugs and legalize all substances, not implement policies of apartheid and racial persecution. That just makes problems worse.

                    So because my viewpoint is different, that automatically means I don't pursue truth? Pursuit of truth requires conformity? You keep calling me a "shill," but you never explain what could be accomplished by that.
