This article discusses the recent pardoning of former Maricopa county sheriff, Joe Arpaio, and the backlash it has ensued among those against Arpaio and even Republicans. It elaborated that the case could not simply be dropped, therefore Donald Trump found it appropriate to pardon the sheriff. The controversy behind this pardon stems from the fact that political pardons are generally to forgive people for their crimes, not completely obliterate them, which seems to be the case with Arpaio.

The issue in this article is definitely controversial, especially here in Arizona. I suppose the issue should be over; he was pardoned. As the article stated, nothing more can be done. People should not waste their energy over something they cannot change and simply move forward.

This will only turn us backwards as a state,as a country. My mom was stopped on numerous occasions driving because the color of her skin,so I feel very strongly that him being pardoned won't be for the good or benefit of people just trying to live their daily lives.

If Arpaio does follow through with running for office I can't imagine it being much different than his last period in office. Trump pardoned Arpaio for his mistakes. Arpaio might not have learned his lesson and may just repeat what he just did.

This article can be taken many different ways. Arpio being pardoned is not something that is for the better of this state and as a country. Everyone needs to be held accountable for their actions, and when people are being let off so easily just as Arpio is, it is not fair for the rest of us.

As the article stated, not much can be done now that Joe Arpaio has been pardoned. I do believe, however, that this dismissal ought to unify Arizona residents in the fight against racial profiling. Whether a victim of Arpaio's practices or not, he committed an unethical crime and is not only being "forgiven," but given the opportunity for a fresh start which does not follow the American justice system.

Joe Arpaio is making inmates pay for being unpatriotic; The inmates destroyed an American Flag. Sheriff Joe is taking action against inmates that are destroying government property.

The jail conditions are really poor in Maricopa county. Some would argue that the conditions are unconstitutional. Rap by fellow prisoners or staff, beaten by guards, driven insane by long-term solitary confinement, or killed off by medical neglect. I understand that criminals shouldn't live in luxury but the conditions that Joe Arpio has the prisoners is not right.
