Tough-talking Arizona Sheriff Joe Arpaio is warning civilians who embark on armed patrols in remote desert terrain that they could end up with “30 rounds fired into” them by one of his deputies.
His unapologetically terse comments
came Tuesday after a member of an Arizona Minuteman border-watch
movement was arrested over the weekend for pointing a rifle at a
Maricopa County sheriff’s deputy he apparently mistook for a drug
smuggler.
“If they continue this there could be some dead militia out there,” Arpaio said.

Or dead cops.
ReplyDeleteYup.
DeleteIf a sheriff would coordinate with the militias, that might lessen the danger. Of course, the political fallout might end the sheriff's career, too. Either way it would be interesting.
ReplyDeleteDefinitely should be coordinated.
DeleteReally Joe? Have you thought that out? How many deputies do you have???
ReplyDeleteI'm not a happy camper either.
DeleteHis deputies might end up with 90 rounds in them if they engage a heavily armed group of patriots, not all patriots will lay down their arms just cause Joe's boy say to.
ReplyDeleteAs a sheriff, I would work with them. Might well be beneficial.
DeleteLessee, mathematically that would require approximately 75 deputies shooting to hit one target 30 times.
ReplyDeleteHeh!:)
