No, it isn't. Joseph "Joe" Arpaio ("America's Toughest Sheriff") is an ex-police officer and a retired (32 year) DEA agent. He's always carried a gun. Legally. But he has run up a looooong list of controversial calls as regards the manner in which he executes the duties of his office as Sheriff of Maricopa County, Arizona. Use the link and check out some of the stuff he has directed or that has happened while he was on watch. If you don't know about this cat, check him out. Scroll down to the list of things that have gone down during his tenure as sheriff and decide if he's crossed the line. It's worth the read. Anyone convicted of a felony cannot hold public office, so how could he be Sheriff of one of the largest counties in the country and have a felony on his record? The answer is quite simple. He has never been convicted of a felony and can own and carry any gun he chooses. People make up nonsense to try to smear his good name all the time, but the voters keep voting him back in because he does the job they want him to do. If you don't like him Cerulean then just vote him out of office instead of coming up with lies about him.
