    I fail to see the difference between a man entrusted to protect "We the People" knowingly allowing Children to be Raped even years after being reported to His Office, and the Child Rapist?

    A Vote for Arpaio is a Vote to endorse "Child Rape".

    And Arpaio's Voters are aligning themselves with Arpaio's Neo Nazi Following, which Arpaio has been photographed with.


    Time for Arizona to get past this era of Racism, and Hatred.

    Send Arpaio down the road with his Racist former Deputy Disgraced Russell Pearce, who wrote Racist Laws for Arpaio.

    John McCain said Arpaio's is a Disgrace regarding the hundreds of neglected Child Abuse cases!

    Wrong McCain Arpaio is far worse than a Disgrace to allow Children to be Raped!

    You McCain are the Disgrace for allowing the Maricopa County Sheriff to get away with this derilection of his DUTY!

    It's a sorry state of affairs when Americans don't have the guts or personal integrity to stand up in their Community and give their name and their opinion. We see it all the time here in the "Comments" section. I don't seem to recall any cutsie "avatars" or "nick-names" being used by the Signers of the Constitution. Many who were killed and their homes and farms destroyed by the British and the Tories. Back then, Americans stood up on their hind legs and said who they were and where they were from and expressed their opinions.

    The reason that I bring up this "gutless anonymity" being displayed by "Commenters" is that now we are seeing in in Journalism. Just look at this article.

    IS THERE A REPORTER'S NAME LISTED.....NO...JUST ..."ASSOCIATED PRESS".

    ANOTHER ..."ANONYMOUS"....NEWSPAPER ATTACK ARTICLE THAT SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN PRINTED WITHOUT A BYLINE AND AN EMAIL ADDRESS WHERE THE READER COULD EMAIL THE REPORTER AND GIVE HIS VIEWS ON SHERIFF.

    FOLKS, THIS IS NOTHING BUT WHAT USED TO BE CALLED....."YELLOW JOURNALISM"....BEFORE THE LIBERAL LEFT-WING TOOK OVER THE NEWSPAPERS, THE NEWS MAGAZINES (WHO, BY THE WAY ARE GOING BANKRUPT OR PAPERLESS) AND THE NEWSPAPERS. JUST LOOK AT THE LOS ANGELES TIMES. IN THE 1950'S IT WAS THE LEADING WEST OF THE ROCKIES NEWSPAPERS. THERE WERE MORE THAN A MILLION SUBSCRIBERS...THEN IN THE LATE 60'S, OTIS CHANDLER TOOK OVER AS EDITOR AND PUBLISHER AND TURNED THE PAPER INTO A LIBERAL RAG. I MET MR. CHANDLER ONCE AT A LUNCHEON AT THE BEAUTIFUL TIMES BUILDING IN DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES ALONG WITH THE MAYOR AND OTHER BIG SHOTS WHEN MY HIGH SCHOOL, JOHN C. FREMONT, IN LOS ANGELES WON..."ALL CITY" (BASEBALL, BASKETBALL AND FOOTBALL CHAMPIONSHIPS). HE WAS A GREAT BIG TALL HANDSOME MAN WHO DIDN'T NEED A MICROPHONE....LOL. WHAT SHOULD HAVE GIVEN ME A CLUE AS TO HIS POLITICS WAS THAT EVERY SINGLE LOS ANGELES "MOVER-AND-SHAKER" WAS WEARING A SUIT BUT OTIS WAS IN A BRIGHT SPORT COAT AND DARK SLACKS......LOL. MR. CHANDLER WAS A GREAT ONE FOR WRITING HIS OWN EDITORIALS ON EVERYTHING AND EVERYTHING.......BUT THEY ALL HAD HIS ......"BYLINE"....I MAY NOT HAVE AGREED WITH HIS TAKE ON THE WORLD BUT AT LEAST HE WASN'T A GUTLESS REPORT LIKE THIS ...."ASSOCIATED PRESS"...REPORTER IS.

    2700 donors to Joe's campaign live in Arizona.
    12,000 donors to Joe's campaign DO NOT live in Arizona.
    Are the Reps. whining about "out-of-state" influence??? Nope! It's OK if it's one of theirs getting the millions of dollars.
    This guy's no longer just a joke.
    Millions of dollars squandered on needless law suits, no visible detective work on hundreds of molestation cases,
    His arrogance knows no bounds.
    JOE'S GOTTA GO!!!

    Come on Maricopa county. Don't let those of us who care about our county down. This is important that we unload this Bully with a badge, and right the sinking ship which is MCSO. I've been saying this for years; this is nothing new for me. Joe must go, and the sooner the better. Come on folks, do what you know is right and elect Paul Penzone as your next sheriff.

    Leon, why is it so important for you to know the name of the reporter? what difference will it actually mean? you will use that name for your propoganda of hate. If the story is true then why do you shudder cause if it's not then you should be cool with it.
    I hope all the people of this county will vote this guy out as he is nothing but a hinderence, his claim to save 40 million in jail cost efficency but is still short 100 million of what he has already cost the taxpayers of maricopa county in unnecessary lawsuits with many more that still need to be dealt with in the courts.
    Arizona willie the sheriff does not have my vote along with my dog, i mean my wife.

    Oh and also Leon what about the reporters who did report and did sign their names to their stories when Arpaio and his MCSO neglected to investigate the over 400 child sex and abuse cases properly, did you applaud them for their courage? I don't think so

    Phxvato,
    I am glad your nemesis Joe Arpaio was re-elected and will serve 4 more years. I am sure he will get rid of many of your illegal buddies and family members and hope he will get rid of you too...enjoy!
