he's entitled to his opinion ; i'm entitled to mine-is this a difficult concept?

He's called for bombing Iran, bombing Libya -in fact you'd be hard pressed to show me a war he didn't want to start/support. That's his right -my right is to despise his warmonger reactionary ass and "dance on his grave" ( figuratively of course)

He's an evil bastard.

Conviction for contempt of court
In December 2014, after many warnings, U.S. District Judge G. Murray Snow told Arpaio there was a very real possibility that he would refer Arpaio to the U.S. Attorney's Office for criminal prosecution on contempt-of-court charges due to the MCSO's failure to comply with the court's order to stop its racial profiling practices. Snow advised Arpaio to retain a criminal defense attorney. In a bid to shield Arpaio from criminal proceedings, his attorneys filed a written statement arguing that any mistakes in complying with the court's orders were unintentional, or the fault of former employees.[203] Judge Snow found Arpaio's arguments unavailing, and, in January 2015, announced that Arpaio would face a contempt hearing in April 2015 for violating court orders in Melendres v. Arpaio.[204]
In March 2015, a month before the scheduled contempt hearing, Arpaio admitted that he violated several court orders, and consented to a finding of civil contempt against him. Because the matter of criminal contempt was still at issue, the initial contempt hearing was held as scheduled.[205]
On July 24, 2015, the court directed U.S. marshals to seize evidence, which was possibly related to the contempt of court charges and was slated for destruction, from the sheriff's office.[206]
On May 13, 2016, the court held Arpaio in contempt on three counts.[175] On August 19, 2016, the court asked the federal government to file criminal contempt charges against Arpaio and some of his subordinates over his failure to follow the court's instructions.[207] On October 11, 2016, federal prosecutors announced that they would press criminal contempt of court charges against Arpaio.[208] On October 25, 2016, such charges were officially filed, though Arpaio would not be arrested and no mugshot would be taken. The charges were filed just two weeks before an election in which Arpaio was running for re-election.[209]
 
he had his people stopping anyone who looked latino and asking them for their papers


does that sound nazi...ish to you?


it is nazi...ish and unconstitutional
 
So now we see why the GOP is rightly viewed as a party that is infested with bigots and racists.

Every single wingnut on this board is tripping over themselves to make excuses for a fat old guy who was intentionally, and illegally targeting Hispanics.
 
it is unconstitutional to target people for how they were born idiot.


you cant target people who have ovaries


youn cant target people inn wheelchairs


you cant target people with red hair



you cant target people withn dark skin



you cant target people of any group.



also Americans can not be stopped and asked for their papers if they have commited no infraction



have you read the constitution?

Sen. John McCain of Arizona: Trump "undermines his claim for the respect of rule of law" with the Arpaio pardon.

Sen. John McCain said in a statement on Friday:

"No one is above the law and the individuals entrusted with the privilege of being sworn law officers should always seek to be beyond reproach in their commitment to fairly enforcing the laws they swore to uphold. Mr. Arpaio was found guilty of criminal contempt for continuing to illegally profile Latinos living in Arizona based on their perceived immigration status in violation of a judge’s orders. The President has the authority to make this pardon, but doing so at this time undermines his claim for the respect of rule of law as Mr. Arpaio has shown no remorse for his actions."​
