Fucking hell neo, the piece of shit functionally tortured people, left them out in conditions that should have constituted attempted murder, and spent better than twenty goddamn years systematically abusing minorities and the integrity of his office with everything that entails, among all the other shit I'm forgetting because you don't lack for examples when it comes to goddamn arpaio.
Him not literally dragging people out in the street and personally executing them means jack all.
It is MOSTLY because for some of that Joe is the easy scapegoat. We don't have to be too introspective because it was all Joe Von Racist pants. THAT is the part I want to cut through.
I don't blame Joe for the Prison itself. So I don't blame him for anything that involved just the prison aspect itself.
I won't make any apologies for him ignoring due procedure and probably actually racist mind you.
But it seems more like the circumstances that surrounded him amplified the bad until it seems hitler level.
But someone getting hit with a bike lock once, a few people getting punched in the face, and a few people losing their jobs (half of which no one here voiced any support of) is equated with everyone being in favor of witch hunts, home invasion, and murder.
That's my point. Astronomical double standards of evidence and behavior.
The REASON I brought it up back then was to show what prosecution over what is inside someone's mind is.
But if you think all there is, is people getting hit once or lost their jobs... Well... You live in a much better world than this one... Can I join you?
