In response to this article posted by the Phoenix News Times, titled "Certain Illegal Immigrants Collard by Arpaio Score Papers to Work Legally as a Result of Their Arrests". The title itself says a lot about where the author is coming from.
"Illegal Immigrants Collard", that in itself is an insult. Immigrants should be collard like dogs when arrested. It's dehumanizing and disgusting. The author obviously has no respect for immigrants in general. He refers to Americans as "Nativists".... AS IF!!! I'm sorry but the majority of Americans living in this country are not Natives to this land and to imply it is a huge offense to Native Americans.
He's approach is insulting. Saying that some of the immigrants were able "score" papers as a result of the arrest implies that they stole it. I'm sure he's one of the idiots bitching out "Why can't they come here legally?" and when someone actually finds a way to legally get papers they are accused of "scoring" them much like someone were to score a dime bag or stolen laptop.
Maybe I read it wrong and maybe I'm over reacting, but this article did not sit well with me.
