It's nice that he's tough on crime and all, but he seems like a power mad authoritarian from the interviews I've seen.

I'm glad that he actually cares about illegal immigration, though. He seems to be in the minority. But, having said that, I'm glad he's far away from me. He seems the type that would toss a kid in the slammer for a minor offense to "teach them a lesson," and meanwhile the only lesson he teaches them is to dislike law enforcement and hate authority.

You are correct in your assumptions. You definitely don't want to piss the guy off.

The truth is, we could get rid of this guy in a heartbeat, if only the media would cooperate and tell the truth about him. They won't because they're afraid of him.

When he's gone (soon, hopefully), we'll be hearing all about his greed and corruption. Until then, though, he's managed to fool a whole lot of people, including here.

Yep. Tis true. Arpaio is very tough on crime!
I spent 90 consecutive days in Tent City for an underage drinking offense (possession/consumption). It was a warrant I hadn't taken care of for a year ($$$) and the irony was that i had just turned 21 when I got arrested for it >=)
Best thing that ever happened to me, let me tell ya!
Set me straight, and I got a great tan. I'll never drink underage again (oh, too late).

It really is 140 degrees in those tents....I heard it, but never believed it till I got there.
However, it seems like almost all the news articles miss the fact that there is an air-conditioned day room available almost 24 hrs a day, the exception being during headcounts.

So I managed to keep cool!

But then someone got beaten to death in the tent next to mine, bludgeoned with steel bunk drawers.
I wonder if he was in there for underage drinking as well...

Oh well the past is past.
