Paul Dobson, Phoenix Cop Who Opposes Arizona Immigration Law, Is Now Under Investigation

An Arizona police officer who spoke out against the state's new draconian immigration law is under investigation related to his statement, Officer Paul Dobson told the Huffington Post.

"I've been admonished not to talk about the investigation, so I can't talk about the investigation. They made it clear that it's related to the interview," he said. "That's public."

Officer Dobson responded to a request by the Brave New Films Foundation for officers to speak out against the law, SB 1070. Phoenix Police Chief Jack Harris spoke out in favor of the legislation, suggesting that Arizona policy considers only certain types of public opinions off-limits for officers.

Dobson said that his fellow officers have treated him with respect and that he is working while the investigation is ongoing, but subtle pressures are being applied. "My colleagues, face to face, are being very gracious. The majority of them disagree with me, but they've surprised me in how gracious they've been," he said. "Behind my back, it's a different story. A lot of hurtful things have been said."

Dobson spoke bluntly about the law. "I have a great deal of contempt for it. I'm very emotional about it," he said in the video. "This law will make me feel like a Nazi out there."

Judge Blocks AZ Immigration Law

PHOENIX (AP)

A judge has blocked the most controversial sections of Arizona's new immigration law from taking effect Thursday, handing a major legal victory to opponents of the crackdown.
The law will still take effect Thursday, but without many of the provisions that angered opponents, including sections that required officers to check a person's immigration status while enforcing other laws. The judge also put on hold a part of the law that required immigrants to carry their papers at all times, and made it illegal for undocumented workers to solicit employment in public places.
U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton put those controversial sections on hold until the courts resolve the issues.
Opponents say the law will lead to racial profiling and is trumped by federal immigration law.

While this is certainly great news (and about time), I wasn't sure if anyone had seen this article:

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/38442769

Seems that since 2007, the "Maricopa County Sheriff's Office was responsible for the deportations or forced departure of 26,146 immigrants."

That is 22.57% of the TOTAL number of deportations in the US during this time.

Wow. The population of our lil town in 2009 is estimated at 18,636. Just Wow. I don't mean to sound dismissive in any way - if anything, I am astounded that the deportation numbers (and perspective vs. our town's population) were so high. To me, that speaks of the article's statement of "officers from a single Arizona county helped deport more than 26,000 immigrants from the U.S. through a federal-local partnership program that has been roundly criticized as fraught with problems."

Fraught with problems? Ya think?
