NO WAY, if every county in California had a Sheriff Joe, the state would have had to file for bankruptcy years ago!

Sheriff Joe does his job. It is always interesting to see all the closeted "open borders" advocates -(you know the folks that refuse to tell the difference between legal immigrants and illegal aliens) come out at the mention of his name. Joe infuriates them - good for him!

The PC crowd and their kooky polemics be damned – God Bless Sheriff Joe !

Oh, do share how many have died under his watch.

That you of all people have gotten the msg to not drink and drive...well Joe...job well done.

Something tells me that you felt much sympathy for that drunkard old bag at Sky Harbor that hanged herself.

Birds of a feather.

I'm an educator here in Arizona and I love Joe!!! Bottom line is this....we have huge issues here compared to the rest of the country, one, of course, being kidnappings as I previously mentioned, the other being immigration. These prevalent issues require solid and sometimes harsh attention....Joe is the perfect man to get the job done and although not all of you may agree with what he does or how he does it...I guarantee if you had an illegal kidnap your child the first person you would go to for help would be the man who has taken an active approach on fighting this dominant issue....
Give me a break, do you think Joe actually goes after the Cartel aka the kidnappers! He is afraid to go after the Cartel and the organized Mexican crime. The sheriff mostly targets illegals looking for work that have no connection to organized crime. Joe has absolutely no impact on the kidnappings. The police are the ones who are addressing the cartel. Yeah, Joe enforces the law....he SELECTIVELY enforces the law. Joe is too comfortable sitting in his office and being a celebrity. He knows his personal safety would be in jeopardy if he went after the kidnappers and thus he doesn't go near them. He goes after the guys working at Filbertos and then televises it so that the morons in the public get excited and say:"He is enforcing the law...yeah..go get em Joe"

It also worked for Charles Barkley! His sentence was a joke

Funny how the Joe supporters IGNORED this response. They had no answer in regards to Colangelo's daughter receiving special treatment. Obviously, they had no answer to this and sought to ignore it hoping your response would disappear. Not so fast! This is why I bumped this again by responding to it. Cmon Joe supporters, care to address this discrepancy

That Shrf Joe "selectively" enforces is better than none at all.

Glen Campbell had to sing at Tent City in exchange for his stay at what MCSO deputies call the Mesa Hilton.

The corruption goes so much further, but frankly, the above is enough for me.

Remember the innocent homeless guy briefly arrested for the rape and murder of a little girl. He was not placed in protective custody, despite his face being plastered all over the news. I think that guy survived his vicious beatings. As I indicated, he was later conclusively excluded as the rapist-killer.
Again, I would love to hear the Joe supporters address the special treatment the celebrities receive like Barkley and Colangelo. Notice, they keep ignoring this fact. Would love to get a response from them explaining this discrepancy. The Joe supporters keep ignoring this response.

I feel so much safer he is going after the guys working at Filbertos instead of the kidnappers and organized crime.
