FOR ALL THOSE PEOPLE OUT THERE THAT THINK SHERIFF JOE HERE IN PHOENIX, AZ WALKS ON WATER AND WHY A LOT OF US HAVE WANTED HIM OUT OF OFFICE FOR THE LAST 16 YEARS, THIS IS AN EXAMPLE OF WHY WE WANT HIM GONE: In 2010 a massive Maricopa County SWAT team, including a tank and several armored vehicles, raided the home of Jesus Llovera. The tank in fact drove straight into Llovera’s living room. Driving the tank? Action movie star Steven Seagal, whom Sheriff Joe Arpaio had recently deputized. Seagal had also been putting on the camouflage to help Arpaio with his controversial immigration raids. All of this, by the way, was getting caught on film. Seagal’s adventures in Maricopa County would make up the next season of the A&E TV series Steven Seagal, Lawman. Llovera’s suspected crime? Cockfighting. Critics said that Arpaio and Seagal brought an army to arrest a man suspected of fighting chickens to play for the cameras. Seagal’s explanation for the show of force: “Animal cruelty is one of my pet peeves.” All of Llovera’s chickens were euthanized. During the raid, the police also killed his dog. MOLON LABE
