Below you will see a speech by Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon at a Cesar Chavez luncheon. In this speech he says that Sheriff Joe Arpaio is “locking up brown people for having broken tail lights”. He also says that illegal immigration is a race issue and it is a shame that this long after Cesar Chavez we are still battling with this “race issue”.

This mayor is a race baiting piece of crap. Full stop.

Mayor Phil Gordon is running a sanctuary city in Phoenix and using the race card to allow it to continue. In the speech he also says that the police should be going for real criminals, dangerous criminals, not illegal aliens who are breaking the law. I would like to know what other laws that Mayor Phil Gordon would like to have ignored? Should we ignore speeders? Should we ignore drunk drivers, since they’re not committing a serious crime? Should we not lock up drug dealers who aren’t violent?

He also says that “non-Hispanic” people in the audience should stand up in favor of ignoring laws cracking down on illegal aliens.

*sigh*

I do know one thing though, Cesar Chavez was opposed to illegal immigration and uncontrolled legal immigration because it drove down wages for the legal immigrants in this country working in the fields. To Mayor Phil Gordon - and all of those who keep using the name of Cesar Chavez when talking about illegal immigration - you are idiots who have no clue about what you are talking about. Do a little research into who you are celebrating rather than just picking a “brown leader” and imposing your beliefs on him. For that is the most racist thing of all.

Seeing Red AZ had this to say:

Obviously, there is a job to be done. Gordon endorsed Arpaio in his last election bid. Now, with his own political future gleaming on the horizon, Gordon is looking toward a new and growing constituency. If only he could figure out a way to get illegals on the voting rosters, he could expand his sanctuary city policies and really place Arizona on the map - as a sanctuary state.

And Gordon also made claims that if Arpaio continues his crackdown that Hispanics may become violent. Sheriff Arpaio over the Easter weekend sent out deputies to arrest loitering day laborers who were committing “petty crimes” in front of businesses and generally being a nuisance.

Paul Giblin at Freedom Blogging reports this:

Sheriff’s deputies patrolled the area, issued traffic citations and arrested illegal immigrants they came across. Gordon said he hopes Arpaio will notify Phoenix Police officials before conducting similar operations in the future.“The sheriff has concurrent jurisdiction – we certainly acknowledge that – but for whatever reason, the communication in advance and the coordination in advance has not occurred and I’m very concerned about the safety of his officers and our officers,” Gordon said …

The Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office action also could be turning the Hispanic community against law enforcement in general, Gordon said.

Well if the “Hispanic community” in general is a bunch of criminals that may be the case, but the reality is that the majority of Hispanics legally in this country or citizens are not criminals. For Gordon to lump the whole “Hispanic community” in with criminals and miscreants is the height of racism. In essence he is saying “brown people will revolt if you arrest the criminals among them, because they are all criminals or sympathetic to them.”

Disgusting.

And one more commentary from Liberty’s Apothecary that sums it up

To add pandering insult to his hypocrisy, Gordon told a supportive group of Hispanics at a luncheon commemorating Cesar Chavez that Arpaio’s actions “could endanger police” and that he should “stop rounding up Hispanics who commit traffic violations and instead pursue ‘dangerous criminals’.” Cheers and applause erupted in the audience.Amnesia and selective memory are two of the critical capacities of the liberal mind, and Gordon now proves he is the master of both.
