“This is a tragedy, what’s happened to him. He should be in the East Room of the White House getting the [Presidential] Medal of Freedom put around his neck. Not sent to prison to be assassinated and murdered, which is what would happen… The only reason Joe Arpaio got this charge, and it wasn’t tried by a jury; it was a leftist judge — is because he supported Donald Trump for president.”


Interesting to see Doug Wead defending an extreme anti-civil liberties, drug warrior in between hawking pyramid schemes.
 
Except this was no statement or referendum on the war on drugs or civil liberties. This was a political prosecution.

That may be the case. But Wead says Arpaio deserves the Medal of Freedom. It would be hard for me to imagine Ron Paul ever heaping that kind of praise on Joe Arpaio.
 
If freedom medals committee is anything like the Nobel Peace awards committee, he could qualify for 10 Freedom medals easily.
 
And.... Justin wants to use this to alienate the base....

Amash has earned my respect by sticking to his constitutional argument, I just don't think he understands that that's the same argument his opposition is making. He needs to frame his argument that the opposition doesn't understand the constitution. He needs to just say to his opposition that just because you believe something doesn't mean its true, I think lots of people believe Sheriff Joe Arpaio is following the rule of law, because they want to believe that's what the law is.

Should the base be worried about a sheriff that racially profiles and detains individuals without charging them?
Well they do care. I'm not a fan of Sheriff Joe, but this is not a simple case of the courts defending the Bill of Rights. I can understand why people hate the former sheriff but I can also see why people are fed up with liberal courts.

Justin has my respect and support but that's despite his best attempts to lose it. And I don't mean here, I mean voting for RyanCare, implying that anyone who tries to defend historical monuments are basically evil, etc. Educate people, but when you side with a corrupt court system over a popular Sheriff you aren't educating anyone, you're just pissing people off and losing a popularity contest.

I am pretty sure that he is being targeted by the neocons, which might be why he voted that way. I understand he is not a good politician though, Education is more important then political action.

I can. I saw a lot of him.

The worst example of the Warlord mentality.

He was not protecting anyone's rights. Just another Authoritarian.

But this is the state that has elected McCain repeatedly.

I am sure he is guilty of much more than he was even charged with..

I did my time.

Yup. Fuck Arpaio and the 'law and order' crowd that thinks his shit doesn't stink.

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to pcosmar again.
