Notice how most news sites are criticizing Trump’s move to pardon Joe Arpaio and writing about all the evil & illegal shit he’s done. Well here’s Fox News:

Here’s the evidence the writer uses to proves he was wrongfully convicted:

Arpaio’s conviction arose out of a lawsuit wrongfully accusing the sheriff’s office of violating the rights of Hispanics, allegedly using racial profiling tactics to identify people for traffic stops, and detaining convicts based only on the suspicion that they were illegal immigrants. Arpaio denied all wrongdoing. I sat in the courtroom through Arpaio’s trial and concluded that he was wrongfully convicted.

and 

Arpaio’s critics have claimed for a long time that he is a racist and biased against Hispanics. In fact, nothing could be further from the truth. 

…

Arpaio has two grandchildren who are of Hispanic descent. To say he is biased again his own family members is absurd. Labeling him a racist for enforcing U.S. immigration law is a tired, exhausted, left-wing strategy that fails time and time again.

Alright pack it up, everyone. Arpaio has grandchildren who are of “Hispanic descent,” and this random guy concluded himself that he was wrongfully convicted. Guess we’re just going to ignore that he’s been found to racially profile MANY times, that he violated the constitution, that he committed human rights abuses, that he falsified reports, misspent money, tampered with elections, ignored sex crimes, and tortured people to death. 

My favorite part is the end, actually:

By pardoning the wrongly convicted former sheriff, President Trump has shown he stands with the law-abiding people of our great country, who have the right to live in peace and safety. And the president has shown he stands against criminals, including those who have crossed our borders illegally.

“He stands with the law-abiding people.” LOL Arpaio has made a career of breaking the law. Anyone who says he’s “law-abiding” just hates brown people and that wipes the slate clean in their eyes. This is so fucking transparent.

Actually scratch that. This isn’t some “random dude,” like I said this is the president of National Center for Police Defense, James Fotis. 

So yeah shows how much law enforcement actually gives a shit about the law when a powerful white man breaks it and how little they are concerned over the ILLEGAL and HARMFUL practice of racial profiling.
