Days after Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon mocked his immigration raids as "made-for-TV stunts," Sheriff Joe Arpaio complained to Phoenix officials that the mayor's remarks could lead to civil disobedience or worse.
In a letter to Phoenix City Manager Frank Fairbanks, Arpaio called Gordon's Friday speech "inaccurate" and said that the mayor's call for citizens to "make your voice heard" created "a hostile environment" for his deputies at a protest later that day.
The sheriff's response came three days after Gordon accused Arpaio of racial profiling in his crackdowns on illegal immigrants.
I appreciate Joe's efforts to do what Phoenix does not have the nuggets to do, enforce our laws. I wish we could clone Joe. It would be nice to do something to show the Sheriff's office how much we appreciate them.

I know I am proud. [/qWe here in Arizona are making it a living 'hell' for illegal immigrants and their enablers-------which is a beautiful thing uote]
This was your quote so no, that type of mentality does not make me proud.
Make all illegal immigrants Legal and all will be good
