Patriot,
I need your help now more than ever.
In my last message I told
you about the effort to remove me from office through a recall campaign.
Well, just this week, the
group behind this recall effort posted a comment on their site from an
individual who stated the following:
|
"He
should see the color of his skin and where he comes from...stupid
motherf***er...let's kill him. I will kill him for free. I am going to
Arizona to kill that a**hole." |
Ignacio Carbajal is a U.S.
Citizen living in Arizona who wrote these words while visiting Mexico.
As disappointed as I am
about this, I understand that there are still elements and people in
this country that have no respect for the Rule of Law; that there are
those who cannot accept the majority will when it comes to fair
elections; that there are those who want to thwart the will of the
voters and make them pay for a costly special election.
What I don't understand is why some of these groups would tolerate the idea of violence committed by their members.
The threat was posted on a
Facebook site called "People Against Sheriff Joe Arpaio." This site is
one of many dedicated to raising money and organizing the effort behind
my recall campaign.
And, this is not the first
threat made against my life. Many threats have come in from drug cartels
in Mexico to other suspects around the country. And several people
have been arrested for making these threats.
It's one thing to disagree about public policy but threatening violence against specific individuals is way beyond reproach.
The same people who tried to
beat me in last year's election are now trying to recall me from office
and now appear to be tolerating murder threats by individuals within
their organization. That's wrong.
I'm going to
continue to do the job you elected me to do despite these threats
against my life. I will always work for you and I will never back down
one inch because of political or physical threats against me.
Clearly the people behind
this recall effort are serious. So serious that not only do they want
to end my term in office, they seem to want to end me, period.
I ask that you please support my campaign today with a much-needed contribution. Please follow this link to make your instant contribution of $25, $50, $100 or more. I don't have to tell you what is at stake if these people are successful.
It
is an honor and a privilege to serve as the Sheriff. I took an oath to
protect and defend the United States Constitution. I intend to do just
that no matter what the consequences.
Please click here to make a donation today.
I must have the support of good people like you if I'm going to
survive this recall effort.
Very Sincerely Yours,
Sheriff Joe Arpaio
Maricopa County, Arizona
P.S. Please don't delete
this email. This effort to forcibly remove me from office was launched
just three weeks after I took the oath to serve another term as Sheriff.
I need your help to ensure I am able to continue doing the job I was duly elected to do.
Once you make a contribution,
I hope I can count on your continued support by forwarding this email
to at least five of your friends and family who agree that enough is
enough. We can have disagreements about public policy, but we should
never threaten anyone’s life. Thank you.
