He got in trouble for arresting criminals. Good on the President.

In order to accept Trump's pardon, Arpaio has to admit he is guilty of the crimes for which he was conviceted. Which, btw, was being racist.

That's just not true. He detained some undocumented aliens but he used racial profiling to do it. Meaning he also illegally stopped citizens just because they looked Latino. That's a blatant violation of the constitution.

Judge Snow issued a preliminary injunction that ordered Arpaio to stop running so-called saturation patrols -- police sweeps that essentially stopped people who looked Latino and detained those who were deemed undocumented. The basic idea was that the profiling, warrantless stops and detention were unconstitutional.

In order for Arpaio to accept the pardon he has to admit he's guilty of racial profiling, essentially admitting he's a racist. So Trump is pardoning a man found guilty of being a racist and admits he's a racist. Pretty amazing shit

Judge Bolton convicted Arpaio of criminal contempt. She found he had “willfully violated” the federal court’s order “by failing to do anything to ensure his subordinates’ compliance and by directing them to continue to detain persons for whom no criminal charges could be filed.” And she held that Arpaio had “announced to the world and to his subordinates that he was going to continue business as usual no matter who said otherwise.”

This is the crime that Trump is suggesting he might pardon: willful defiance of a federal judge’s lawful order to enforce the Constitution.

Arpaio was also a birther like Trump. Those racist stick together.

He doesn't have to admit anything. Quit getting your dumb **** information off twitter.

It's not a violation of the constitution to ask people driving a vehicle if they have relevant information.

Blame Obama for that. Wasn't Arpaio or Trump that went around his college years and beyond telling people he was born in Africa. Now deny that.

It is if it's based on a racial profiling. A court of the law confirmed it. Convicted him. End of story.

It is a violation of the constitution to racially profile. The courts found he was racially profiling and told him to stop. He refused a court order and was found guilty.

By accepting the pardon Sheriff Joe admits he's guilty. A pardon doesn't make you innocent. It means you're guilty of the crime you were convicted of but restores your civil and preconviction rights.
