I grew up in Maricopa county..And what surprises me most about all of this is that you never hear about the connection between Joe Arpaio and State rep Russell Pearce...You know the man who created the proposal of the Az immigration law.

Russell Pearce was a Maricopa county sheriff and they are old cronies from way back...What doesn't surprise me is the fact that Pearce created this (Nazi like) show me your papers law.. The man was a bigot when I knew him then and he is a bigot now...
