Arizona Sheriff Decides To Enforce The Law...

GILA BEND, Ariz. — "One Arizona county sheriff has created a 250-strong posse to hunt down those who cross the border illegally.

"I'm the only agency enforcing this law because it is the law," Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio told FOX News. "It's a violation of the law, and I'm going to put tents up from here to Mexico if I have to to keep these illegals incarcerated."

But Arpaio's actions are already causing some controversy.

Arpaio, the sheriff for Arizona's most populous county, is taking advantage of a new state law that allows charging undocumented immigrants with criminal conspiracy to smuggle themselves into the United States. Previous laws had made entering the U.S. illegally a misdemeanor, not a felony. The anti-human-smuggling statute took effect in Arizona in August and gave prosecutors a tool to go after "coyotes," or smugglers, who traffic in undocumented immigrants.

The Maricopa County Attorney's Office later issued an opinion saying undocumented immigrants suspected of paying coyotes could be prosecuted as conspirators."

WTF? Fox News is calling them "undocumented immigrants"?

Okay, backstep time. Hoo-frickin-Ray for Sheriff Arpaio, and long may he and those like him remain steadfast in enforcing the law. But for chrissake I'd have expected the ASSociated Pressgang types to be using such dainty ass language to describe the illegal invaders who've frigged us to the nines, but if Fox is joining the hug-a-beaner brigade then the fight will be even more difficult.

Please read the whole thing, and hey, Sheriff Joe? I've got some old tents you can use, and I'm damned sure enough of us would send 'em free of charge if you needed more.

PS: Now if only the men of Texas could find their misplaced testicles and remember what the term "Fighting Back" used to mean, we'd be well on our way to banning the beaners for good.

Even if only to shame enough of the right people to wake the frig up. Then again, he's gotta be handsome enough for the ladies, have about 80 or 90 mill hanging around doing nothing, and either possess a spotless record or run as a Democrat so no one will care.
