Joe Arpaio: A Racist With A Gun on A Mission to Shatter Families
WELCOME TO ANOTHER SORDID CHAPTER in the Sherrif Joe Arpaio Freak Show. I know my regulars are all too aware of this sad, aging, dinocreptastic remnant of an era screeching into our past and not gracefully and with guns—but if you are not, here is a treat for you, a YouTube vid dealing with his latest daring act of wackery.
WELCOME TO ANOTHER SORDID CHAPTER in the Sherrif Joe Arpaio Freak Show. I know the regular UMX crowd is well too aware of this sad, aging, dinocreptastic remnant of an era screeching into our past and not gracefully and with guns—but if you are new to the “good sheriff’s” antics, well. Lo siento, I’m very sorry to hear that.
This is a YouTube vid dealing with his latest daring act of wackery, raiding a car wash. Because, as has been made clear by small radioactive rotten-cheese fragment newspaper demons in Sheriff Joe’s nightmares, ALIENZ are sneakily sudsing your cars into a Salsa-centric state of mind and we can’t have that in this here United States.
Watch for the chica, Katherine Figueroa, who tells it from her angle. You see, it was her parents scooped up in this raid. She learned about it from watching the news that day. And remember: this is the America we are making, every day.
President Obama. You can search El Grito to see how passionately and often this blog defended during your heated candidacy against those who claimed you were “nothing but pretty speeches.” Oh yeah, I lost a “friend” or two over that whole primary.
So. Enough with the speeches on how much you plan for immigration this year, or even the lectures to Fathers on how they should father. Eh? Tell it to Katherine Figueroa. And since your words can feel so magical (as both Will.i.am and myself would be happy to testify to) why don’t you also tell it to all the other children suffering in this barbaric anti-immigrant/anti-Latin@/anti-family onslaught which is doing nothing so much as lending more and more power to those with hate in their hearts.

Speaking of racist assholery in AZ, check it:
Tom Horne to Ethnic Studies: Drop Dead!. Looks like public schools in AZ are being punished for offering ethnic studies courses – thanks to the AZ legislature and the current AZ governor.
Hola. Joe Arpaio is not just a racist with a gun, he is a racist with a BADGE and a gun, which makes his gun-toting the Law. He admitted to being ‘an admirer of the Ku Klux Klan’ in an interview shortly after firing the Big Bully, Shaquille O’Neal. There are also reports of discriminating in his law enforcement style as well as human rights violations in his so-called jail.
Does “gringo” mean the same as (whip) cracker?
I sent a link to this post to the White House and will encourage others to do the same.
I live in Mexico and often feel guilty at the graciousness and hospitality which I am shown, compared to the treatment that Mexican immigrants get in my home country.
Thanks for your blog… I enjoy it a lot.
james, appreciate the headsup. i have been hearing about that one, too. never a shortage of struggle, eh? peace.
good to see ya! peace.

hola Langalibalele! you are right. important fact left out of that title! yes, not even just reports on him; arpaio admits to racial profiling, in essence, he finds it helpful. i’m surprised? of course you find racial profiling helpful when you are racist in your beliefs and world vision! ay. and yes, your translation seems to be accurate to me.

gracias, ellen. i appreciate your actions as well as your words. good to see you here.
Arpaio is evil!
I hope someone else gets his job very soon. He should be making people feel safer, especially the little kids in his county, and that girl is obviously not feeling very safe with her parents taken away…and she saw it first on TV? That’s not right. He cares more about making a point than who gets hurt…he’s not up to the job. This video is really good even though it’s sad.
wow, good job ellen… is this why the vid is no longer available?
i am wondering how the court ordered investigation is going; on “Joe Arpaio is not just a racist with a gun, he is a racist with a BADGE and a gun, which makes his gun-toting the Law.” (and ego crazy at that). does anybody know?
“And remember: this is the America we are making, every day.”
GET RID OF JOE ARPAIO!
Try again, video just worked for me.
and i agree.
how many tears have fallen for what.
