After weeks of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio criticizing Phoenix for not taking a harder stance against illegal immigrants, Mayor Phil Gordon struck back Friday, saying the sheriff’s “made-for-TV stunts” could endanger police and spur violence among protesters.
Speaking at a luncheon at the Phoenix Convention Center honoring civil-rights leader Cesar Chavez, Gordon blasted Arpaio’s latest roundup of illegal immigrants in northeast Phoenix, saying that the sheriff acted in a way “that deliberately sets the stage for shouting matches, confrontations or worse.”"*
