#1 I love Sheriff Joe. He actually solves problems. There are a lot of southwest folks who'd join a posse pronto.

#2 This won't work, though. He probably wants to release them to the Feds, who will just let them go. The Feds will win, because there are limits to how many will fit, even inside tent cities.

#4 Sheriff Arpaio says Tuesday's arrests include two coyotes, one of whom may be charged with a far more serious offense - endangerment.

This is why you make illegal immigration a federal felony. You can charge these SOB neo-slavers, aka coyotes, with multiple federal felonies for conspiracy to violate federal law. One count for each illegal they're caught with.

#5 Coyotes should be shot on sight, and I'm not talking about the four-legged canines. These people are the dregs of humanity, and deserve no mercy. Hang 'em, shoot 'em, stake 'em out in the hot sun to die - whatever works. The more we kill, the fewer that will attempt to make a living at this dispicable "occupation".

#6 Nimble Spemble: Yes, I know publicity-hound, sadistic Joe. But the reality is that he is only part of the system. He can arrest and he can hold, but somebody else must try and convict. Unless he holds the illegals for breaking *county* law, he must release them to whatever other jurisdiction they will be charged in, State or Federal.

If the State or the Feds refuse to charge them, then they just let them go. If Joe immediately re-arrests them, they can sue the hell out of him for false imprisonment. And they will win.

Even if the county made being an illegal alien a violation of county law, being illegal aliens, the feds get first crack at prosecuting or deporting them, or even just having custody.

It would just be easiest for them to let Joe incarcerate them until Maricopa county refused to fund it any more.

#7 those who live near the border might disagree. The number of times they are robbed and the problems of illegal immigrants are to the point that I'm guessing that a good number of citizens on the border would be happy to pony up.

I don't know many people - even my liberal friends - who are remaining very sympathetic in this regard. Most Americans want the borders shut. I'm already hearing radio ads for politicians saying they oppose amnesty and want the border closed.
