If Arizona's Sheriff is costing them MILLIONS in just law suits because of immigration enforcement?

How many more law suits is Arizona going to see from US Citizens alone if their new immigration law (SB1070) passes? How are they going to pay for it if AZ is broke? Did politicians take that into consideration?

Before you say illegals caused AZ to go broke, provide a source to prove it, no opinions please!

For too long, Joe Arpaio has put politics and publicity before law enforcement and the safety of Maricopa County residents. He has squandered millions of taxpayer dollars for his own political gain. Under his watch, Maricopa County has become a safe haven for felons, as tens of thousands of felony warrants (and counting) go unserved. Joe Arpaio has been in office far too long. It's time for the abuses to come to light. It's time for change. It's time for Joe to go!

    People who voted for these idiots need to realize the costs, they will be asking Obama for a bailout and Obama should refuse cuz of their own irresposnible behavior. i hope Arizona goes bankrupt and realize undocumented workers are necessary in our economy.

    "Millions in just law suits because of illegal immigration"? Where did you get that? There were law suits mentioned but none related to immigration! Maybe you mean the one where he arrested a US citizen for being in the US illegally? Case dropped after he showed the tape of the "illegal alien" Stating that he was an illegal alien! Or the one where the person claimed to be a naturalized US citizen who lost his paperwork? Never did find any record of him even entering the US!

    Joe clears his warrants better than the vast majority of sheriffs! The city police on the other hand don't want to arrest criminals because they might upset the criminals! Phoenix, Mesa, etc are the true havens for felons! Amazing how if you look at the facts you see that the cities that are safe havens for illegal aliens are the same ones that are safe havens for felons!

    If you want to blame someone for not clearing the warrants why not blame the CHP? They have just as much control over the Mesa Police department as Joe does!

    Illegal aliens commit over 50% of the crimes in AZ! Get rid of them and crime is cut in half! Anyone can figure that out! Besides why are you so interested in AZ? You have stated that you live in CA!

    The law is to keep illegals from obtaining jobs in the US. It's to keep companies from hiring known illegals. What does that have to do with profiling? It makes sense to either provide a green card to work here, or a US passport if legal citizen when applying for a job. Do you know how much of our tax dollars are wasted on illegals obtaining false social security numbers and collecting govt aid, then sending that money to their family in Mexico?

    Too bad so many hate America so much,that they force Arizona into the Courts simply for enforcing the Law.

    So Arpaio isn't the problem,it's all the America Hating Liberals out there trying to keep him and the State from going after Criminals(Illegals)

    If that bill passes Obummer will be pissed off that all the hispanics he promised a QUICK citizenship to will be deported.

    Thank God for Sheriff Joe. I wish every border city had one.

    California is broke too. in the newspaper it said they broke our back with the birthright of illegals having babies here.

    Not for long HR 1869 takes away that ACLU take on the 10th amendment.

    Did you know people fly to the US to have babies, yep, legal visa holders, why? the entitlements.

    Wake up,

    I agree with Jumal. If this goes into effect, AZ will really go down and blame it on Obama.

    Wow comrade greasy - this bill really has your BVD's in a wad. Because millions is still less than the billions they cost.

    This country goes by our Constitution - not fear of lawsuits.
