Joe Arpaio...at it again

[Shuffler]

then why specifically mention the 2:30 news conference?  what was that conference about?  if there was nothing political about it, I am pretty sure by now you would have posted what it was about.  you are hiding the fact that that conference was political, from skuzzy, and are claiming the "it wasnt about politics but about supporting your sherrif".

Folks all across the country support an American willing to stand up to tyranny.

I'm sure as an American he had no problem showing proof. I wouldn't.

From the article:

"Manuel Nieto and Velia Meraz, both of whom are U.S. citizens, will recount how they were pulled over and handcuffed at gunpoint in the middle of the day for no apparent reason other than that Meraz was singing along to Spanish-language music when they passed a deputy."

Really?  Is this what the officer that detained him put in his official report as probable cause?

I sincerely doubt it, especially if he wanted any possible prosecution to hold water in any court...


Another quote from same article:

"Some of the plaintiffs will likely describe how Arpaio's so-called crime sweeps in neighborhoods targeted Latinos for interrogation about their immigration status based on nothing more than their appearance."

Well, since Arizona does not share any borders with any Asian or African countries, this seems more logical than confronting Asians or Africans.   

Yet another:

"For example, a Latino motorist was stopped for failing to use a turn signal and jailed for 13 days for failing to provide proper identification, even though he provided multiple documents sufficient to satisfy Arizona law"

I always have my ID on me, even when naked.  It prevents mistaken identity problems.

Confused..  It's not illegal to drive without a license in Arizona?

See Rule #14

[Shuffler]

My eyes are open, he's obviously playing off people's fears and prejudices to draw attention away from his own alleged crimes. 

It's not hard to see that it works perfectly on some people.

hehe you are definitely confused.

You should be confused, since I did not say that anywhere, at any time.

[Slash27]

unless of course it's people like me who are expected to prove who we are at all times.

well...  You certainly didn't not say that either.  I know here, in michigan, driving without a license is a serious, arrestable offense.  And it's a real pain for even a legitimate resident with a valid license to get a replacement fit a lost one.

Why are you against the enforcement of law?

[Skilless]

If a legal alien is required by law to carry with them at all times proof of their immigration status and photo id, would it not be reasonable for law enforcement to assume that those that do not comply are here illegally?

You missed the final statement in my post...

I always have my ID on me, even when naked.  It prevents mistaken identity problems.

I apologize that this statement wasn't graphic or vulgar enough to help prove the point that one should be able to positively identify one's self at any time.  Next time I will post a pic of my driver's license hanging from my Johnson...

actually, if i'm not mistaken(and i may be) pa will and does issue drivers lisences to illegal residents. i seem to recall a customers employee(landscaper that doesn't come to me anymore after i got on his case about hiring those kinds of people) bragging to me that he can legally drive even though he's not legally here. he told me that when i asked him why his car was registered in pa when he lives in nj.

Not unless he magically acquired a birth certificate or State-issued ID card before getting the license.

It is actually fairly difficult to get a driver's license in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania.

I had to bring 2 forms of ID just to get mine renewed and a new picture taken the last time it was about to expire.

Apparently you need a social security # to get a Drivers license in Pa. However it doesn't say that it would refuse the equivalent ITIN card that is issued to illegal workers.

Inherently strange, since I have not had to produce an actual S.S. card in over 15 years (since the # is on my license)

My Social Security card clearly states that it is not to be used as identification.
