Guadalupe, Arizona looking to dump Arpaio

@ 09:31 PM (10 days, 12 hours ago)

Too funny. They don't want to see the laws enforced. They had a screaming fit that Maricopa County deputies did saturation patrols in their little dump. I don't know it's a dump, I've never been there, but I have read comments after some articles that lead me to that conclusion. Here's what's funny, even if they hire their own police, Arpaio still has jurisdiction and can go there anytime.

Will be a lawless dump in no time.

A group of residents in the town of Guadalupe have begun planning for a future without police service from the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office.

About 90 people gathered Sunday at Our Lady of Guadalupe Church to discuss law enforcement options for the town, which include creating its own police force.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio has threatened to pull out of the suburban Phoenix town in six months after town officials complained about saturation patrols they say targeted illegal immigrants last month.

 

Organizers of Sunday's meeting, a group called United Guadalupe, asked residents to consider six options for law enforcement in the 5,500-person town.

Those options include using private security, creating a police department, contracting with Tempe or Phoenix for police protection or keeping the sheriff's office.

Residents attending the meeting roundly booed the final option.

"Do we need to talk about number 6?" asked Santino Bernasconi, an official with United Guadalupe.

"No!" replied most in attendance.

 

Arpaio's position on staying in Guadalupe remains unchanged. "I'm not going to stay in any city where they tell me what laws to enforce and not to enforce," he said.

Even if Guadalupe goes in a different direction for law enforcement, the sheriff said he still has authority to conduct law-enforcement activities, including illegal immigration crackdowns, because the sheriff's office has jurisdiction across the entire county.

  3. My recommendation? Do background checks on the 90-loudmouths. I bet most are here illegally. Once that point is establish, start immigration procedure. I am sick of these people coming to my country, and dictacting what the laws are going to be. By the way Burns, did you hear "Juan McCain on Monday?" He's back to that old bullsht of, "They Are All God's Children." I can't believe this guy is the GOP standard bearer.
