MARCH TO ARPAIO'S JAILS THIS SATURDAY, May 2nd!

Join us and Zack De La Rocha this saturday as we protest Arpaio and 287g in Phoenix AZ.
We will meet at 8:00 AM at 100 W. Washington at the Wells Fargo Tower where tax payers pay 675,000K/year for his rent in luxury office suites while vital programs are slashed.

We will march to the jails where his abusive continues of murder and mistreatment of innocent people continue even after losing his Jail accreditation several months ago.
Broken arms, dislocated jaws, vulgarities, intimidation, are part of the daily routine at Maricopa County Sheriffs Office detention facilities. Disregarding the evidence, Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano seems to favor the prison model whereby detainees believed to be undocumented can be interrogated, and deported once local law enforcement brings them into jail. The human rights violations of members of this vulnerable population have been documented and testified about in the recent Congressional Hearing on the 287 (g) program overseen by the Department of Homeland Security.

Now, at the request of the victims who are out on an Immigration Stay of Deportation, while their case is being heard, on behalf of those brave women who smuggled a letter to be presented to Congress; we will walk from Sheriff Joe headquarters to Estrella, Durango, and Tent City jails. Puente representatives fear that Sheriff Arpaio will punish the prisoners by putting them in Lock Down, denying visitation rights, and taking away their recreation activities the day of the walk. We will not sit idly by while human rights abuse continues unabated at the hands of 287(g) trained deputies.




Stop the torture. Stop the abuse. Stop the intimidation Stop Joe Arpaio. Stop 287 (g) agreements with local law enforcement.

More bleeding heart crap. What do you think would happen to a white guy if he refused to be fingerprinted and struggled with police?

[Humanleague002]

@schleprock13 She was already finger printed when she was booked. They were forcing her to sign docs she wasn't legally required to. They then forced her to put her print on them. Watch and listen before you comment. Learn the facts.

Maria Martinez. Living here for 19 years yet she speaks no English.

[Humanleague002]

Have you ever heard of freedom of speech? It's not against the law to speak a different language.

[jazzbo13]

Ignorance has nothing to do with her First Amendment rights, or yours. If she can't speak the language of her host country after nearly two decades, then she's a parasite.

[Humanleague002]

Many U.S. Citizens speak little or no English. There is no law saying anyone has to. Also, she is no parasite. Your tax dollars (assuming you pay them) have never gone to her or her hard working family. If you are offended by the sound of another language I suggest you learn it or get over it. Thats more about you and your racist attitude than her language.

The conditions in this place are appalling ,womens tents were raided and strip searched all for kicks because it was Arpaios birthday! No I did not serve time there but knew someone who endured these inhumane conditions and treatment.

god damn*ed racist mother Fu*kE*s, now lets see who should be put behind bars

White people don't hate anyone. the only reason that we get brought into this sort of thing is because whites make up a majority of the population here. We're all racist and wont let anybody get up because we hate everyone. Its all bull, don't believe it. Everybody wants to get theirs, I have seen successful people from all races. The real problem here is that nobody wants to take responsibility for their own lives. Its to easy to blame it on somebody holding you back & thats true for everyrace
