Pinal County, Arizona Sheriff using alarmist tactics that don’t ring true

Arizona Governor Jan Brewer used the state’s new Immigration Law, SB1070, to increase her support with unmindful Arizonans for the November election. But Paul Babeau, Sheriff of Pinal County, Arizona has resorted to the alarmist approach on his way to outclass Maricopa County Sheriff, Joe Arpaio, when it comes to publicity.

Babeau says that Mexican drug cartels are “conquering” parts of the United States. Law enforcement says not true. Santa Cruz, County Sheriff Tony Estrada, a 40 year veteran, wouldn’t say Babeau is lying, but he did say he hasn’t “…seen the drug cartels controlling American territory.” News Hounds says that Barbeau is Fox News “frontline warrior against 'illegals' and drug smugglers” with a heavy dose of anti-Obama talk thrown in to the mix of border hysteria.”

In reality, Border Patrol arrests are down 17 percent in 2010 for the fifth straight year. When are Arizonans and the rest of the country going to figure out that they have been duped by this racial conspiracy?
