“Didn’t the OJ jury include 9 or 10 African-Americans? Arpaio should demand a jury with at least 9 Italian-Americans.”

Correct.

However, for that to occur it would require a self-hating, politically-correct, kiss-the-ass-of-parastic-minorities prosecuting attorney, like one cowardly Gil Garcetti.

“disparate impact theory” - the theory that using coke as opposed to crack makes you a racist.

brilliant.

...and having English-only policies in his jails that discriminate against people with limited English skills.

Just wait for the next lawsuit based on discrimination for locking up criminals with limited freedom skills...

So the US is suing Arpaio because he won’t cooperate on their fishing expedition?

That's what it sounds like.

Arpaio's office had said it has fully cooperated in the jail inquiry but won't hand over additional documents into the examination of the alleged unconstitutional searches because federal authorities haven't said exactly what they were investigating.

WHERE IS THE GOP?

Call a damn press conference and go after this justice dept, state dept and homeland dept.

This is an outrage that those who upheld the law are now being threatened and these depts are nothing more but witch hunts.

AZ demand to see that B/C and all the other records.

Drop and lessen charges against black racists who clearly broke the law.
Postpone charges against the bomber of the USS Cole.

Sue community college in AZ.
Sue sheriff in AZ
Sue AZ
Send report to UN that AZ is violating civil rights.

WHERE THE HELL IS THE GOP ON THIS CRAP???????

Why is this admin being allowed to get away with this crap and they are clearly witch hunting plus being used as a political witch hunt.

AZ demand to see the records of obama.
Will obama run now that he has to show his B/C before he can run in that state?

What’s the betting the GOP yet again will gain power and do frigging nothing, will not repeal Govt health care.
do nothing over the wall, immigration, clamp down in illegals, tell the UN to piss off

more of the frigging same and it pisses me off

If they are worried about prisoners having limited English skills, that won’t be remedied by Spanish signs, because they can’t read Spanish either.”

The saddest thing about this is, the Obamanation DOJ is just following the steps of AG Alberto Gonzales of the Bush administration who sued the Salvation Army because they wanted their employees to speak English.

Disparate Impact

Even where an employer is not motivated by discriminatory intent, Title VII prohibits an the employer from using a facially neutral employment practice that has an unjustified adverse impact on members of a protected class.

A facially neutral employment practice is one that does not appear to be discriminatory on its face; rather it is one that is discriminatory in its application or effect.

******

They are having to “s t r e t c h” for this one!

The great irony here is that the Feds EXPECT our local law enforcement to ENFORCE THEIR federal drug laws, but not immigration!

“Everybody but Obama has to turn over their records”

Yeah, and sheriff Joe should follow LTC Lakin’s lead and tell Obama “show me yours and i might show you mine”.

Sixty years ago, I taught school in the Rio Grande Valley, in a high school that was 70% Tejano. It was an English only where students were not supposed to speak English is the hallways. Only two members of the faculty were latino, one who taught Spanish. The kids would sign up for her class, hoping for an easy “A”. The problem was they had no grammar, no vocabulary beyond what one would need at home. They literally could not THINK in Spanish, and their English was poor. The Spanish teacher said: they are BI-illiterates! Ignorant in two languages.

"This justice dept//state dept is nothing more but a political witch hunt and the GOP should be do a press conference right now saying this..."

I think this may be what Obama and the DemoSocialists are hoping for.

Republicans: "This suit against Sheriff Joe is a witch hunt!"

Democrats: "See! Republicans are Racists vote for us so Racists don't control Congress!"

MSM Reporters: "SO Republicans how long have you been racists and will you seek to prosecute Sheriff Joe if you Control Congress"

Republicans: "We will gain control of Congress to fix the economy we aren't going to bother with Sheriff Joe..."

MSM Reporters wrap up: "So there you have it America. The Republicans will institute a Racist Agenda and let the Racist Sheriff Joe Continue his racist ways..."

Exactly what it is. No actual complaints so they came down to let Arpio incriminate himself. Once he figured out what they were up to, he sent 'em packing.

Bush suffers from the blindness of so many upper class people. He knows only guys like Alberto and his lawn-service guys. He should go to places like the auto impoundment place in Dallas, and talk to the gang-bangers who show up there.

“And this after the Holder/Hussein Justice Dept. dropped the prosecution of the New Black Panther Party and the USS Cole bomber. You have to hand it to Hussein/Holder. They go where no rational politician would go. Only saboteurs committed to running this republic into the ground would act as they do. Let the evidence speak for itself.?”

The evidence does speak volumes.

Holder/Hussein are supportive of the enemies of the US and against those that would uphold its laws.

This behavour clearly deserves a joint Congressional hearing, after NOV. Probably will have to wait until Jan, but this should be the 1st action the NEW Congress takes.

It’s certainly not a ‘justice’ department anymore.
