Joseph Maria peddling fentanyl. Creating new George Floyds. Providing our communities more reasons to be heartbroken.
Remember that Sheriff in Arizona who put criminals in tents out in the desert? Arpiao or something like that.
We need the same here. Take these drug pushers and place them in hostile desert prisons, complete with the pink underwear. That sheriff had the right idea. Too bad the panty waist libs went after him.
YEAH, Sheriff Arpaio was quite interesting. He used to make regular visits with those inmates.He would ask interesting questions like Why are you in here and what are you going to do when you get out. He made a point to reduce the cost of housing and feeding them. I believe he gave them bologna sandwiches three meals a day]
He was so effective at reducing crime that the leftists had to get rid of him.
QUESTIONS:
Just asking the questions some “woke” people would be afraid to ask.

Thanks Eddie for reading Citizens Journal and providing your sense of wisdom to this 75 year old “kid.”
Hi Eddie, the person arrested truly sounds like ‘bad news.’ So yeah, if he is a foreigner then yes, A LOT of people here in the US would want him deported.
