Justice Department accuses AZ Sheriff Joe Arpaio of mistreating Latinos

5 mexicans just robbed a bank, the police put out a bulletin that they are looking for 5 suspects..all mexicans....all non english speaking, all without proper ID. But wait.....here comes the federal govt justice department saying...cant do that..cant look for mexican looking people cause that is discrimination.

Glad this SOB is being brought to justice. He thinks he is above the law. Make him pay. Give and it shall be given to you, disrespect and hate must be not tolerated. There is a law that must be respected.

Mariob, Suzanne along with others---you bleeding hearts can kiss my arse. They are invaders and they are milking our Welfare system and claiming not to be married but in actuality they are and as illegals they should not be elligible for any benefit that Honest working citizens have to pay for. Sherrif I salute you for doing the job the Fed Govt should be dooing but refuses to do so they can keep them here and keep themselves in office. Run them out and send them home and whioe we are at it lets see if we can send Obama and the Pelosi clan with them since they think so much of them. Americans need to make their children work in the summers for the farmers. Oh that would be cruel..#$%$ all the children did it when I was young living in NC. and growing up. When the economy falls apart and it will very soon you liberal cry babies will not make it.

Sheriff Joe, come to CA.! This state gives more rights to illegals than citizens themselves!
Illegal populations has decreased in Arizona. Thats good enough for me. PC is killing this country and this country needs to grow a pair. The simple truth is most illegals are coming from Mexico. So, who should we look? The Irish? If you're not doing anything wrong or illegal, then you'll be on your way fast enough.

Obama, Holder and the rest of the Brownshirts in that administration should be investigated.

Sheriff Joe needs to GO...to hell. Where I'll be waiting with a pair of pliers and a blowtorch.

This guy makes no sense and is an attention junkie to which you close minded fools feed into.The economic crash has a lot to do with irresponsible money borrowing for housing , not from illegals. As a matter of fact alot of cities and states are doing bad because they are being forced to have to pay more to non illegals who can't handle the hard work and do less. Joke is on you racist bigots , but I wouldn't expect you all with closed minds to to really understand how economy works.

All of you have no heart and are selfish! You need to get over yourselves and stop thinking about you, you, and only you. God made this land for all of us, he did not just make it for you. Why is it that other ethnicities come in illegally, but when a hispanic/ latino comes everyone is quick to judge. I don't see more than half of you picking out the great fruit you eat or anything else that's grown out on the fields. It's one thing to be disappointed in the women who come here to breed and take free government care on purpose but what about the hispanics that were raised here before any of these stupid laws came into effect. My father is from Mexico, he's the hardest worker I know, and all I see is a bunch of ignorant people discriminating against my race and culture because they're to lazy to get up and work hard themselves. I truly dislike how everyone(not all, but most) here are so quick to judge yet you cry when you don't get things done fast enough or everything handed to you. And the justice department is right, Arpaio has found so many reasons to deport people for things that they didn't even do, or even arrest/ question them for no reason. He and his followers think that what they're doing is right, but it's not. It's a clear act of racism and I thought we were past that for many years now, but it seems like people just can't seem to grow up and stop crying like babies.

Wow! they could not sue the member of the black panther on what they didduring Obama's elction because they intimidating no obamavoters...but thye accuses the sheriff of volating civil rights....what a joke......

Who is crossing illegal into America? Mostly Mexican and other Hispanics are entering the USA illegal. So, of across that is who will be arrested and target the most. The Feds are going out of their way to attack an American citizen who is doing his job. The current administration in the White House are the problem

the Justice department was going to seek out and find those responsible for the economic crash in America , find those responsible for the greed and corruption across America ... so where are the stories about those held responsible ----------- not a word anywhere !

Illegal aliens mistreat American taxpayers every day. Since when did an illegal alien come before an American sheriff just doing his job?

Get over it. Jan brewer (Gin Press Jan) and Joe Arpaio (Donut Hole joe) Both think the Consitution doesn't included Arizona. But then again joe mis-spent or misplaced 100 million dollars this year (BACK YARD ?) and Jan can't remember a three line speech though she thinks Donuthole Joe is doing a Great Job. What was her cut ?

If the freakin illegals weren't allowed to run rampant in America, people would't be so quick to judge... Go Joe!!!

If the justice department wont step up to the plate and be part of the solution, they could at least step out of the sheriff's way and stop being part of the problem.

I hope Arizona goes bankrupt from the perpetual harassment of their unappreciated cheap work force.

ok, so i have had my civil rights violated every time i have been pulled over and asked for my identification since i have been old enough to drive? no, because im white? but its mostly whites where i live, have we been profiled ? or do we understand that its not that big of a deal to present your license and insurance when asked by police? unless you are illegal in some way. now , not properly investigating any reported crime is just wrong and action needs to be taken if its fact. ERIC HOLDER should be prosecuted as well.

That's illegal in Arizona, I don't think so. They're lucky the weren't shot on sight!

It amazes me that Arizona, Governor Jan Brewer and Sheriff Joe Arpaio have all tried to do something about the illegal mexican problem in their State, THEIR HOME, trying to protect the people of Arizona from the illegal mexicans criminal activities and the Federal Government does nothing to help them then turns the world up side down to make them look like the bad guys. The illegal mexicans (with the aid or their legal mexican friends) are protected by this government even thought they broke the laws coming here and by staying here. The legal citizens of this country are treated like second class citizens and are turned away if benefits are needed for their families but given to illegal mexicans like candy at halloween. Why should illegal mexicans have a problem being asked for ID's when legal citizens are asked for ID's almost every day?? Why should illegal mexicans or those mexicans in jail for criminal activities complain about anything??? They didn't care about our rights when they broke the laws and stole from us so why are we concerned about their rights?? How can this be considered racism when a being a mexican is not a race but instead a nationality? I'm boycotting everything mexican and will not deal with any business that hires illegal mexicans. It's time for the Federal Government to quit pampering this illegal roaches and start taking care of those who pay the bills.

Ever notice there are 2 blacks, Holder and Obama that are not doing their jobs that are targeting 2 whites, Arpaio and Brewer for doing their jobs.. Who's racially profiling who?
