Russell Pearce, a human being that just won’t take the hint and go away, claimed on CNN this morning that if the federal government had an immigration law like SB 1070, the events of September 11th, 2001 would have been prevented.
No, seriously. That’s actually what he said.
9/11 would’ve been averted. Four out of the five main hijackers were stopped by law enforcement and let go and were in the country illegally, they overstayed their visas…but, apparently, that’s okay to the left.
Also, it’s demeaning to police officers to believe that they’re capable of racial profiling.
Great job, great effort, Russell Pearce.

Funny. I read it that he thought the police must’ve been lefties to let them go. Sigh.
Didn’t a few of the high jackers live in Arizona? Why didn’t law enforcement arrest them in AZ? Most likely no reason too at the time.
Man, it would be soooo nice if reporters would just all misplace Pearce’s phone number… He’s dead politically, can’t we start ignoring him like we ignore all crazy, racist, old coot, creepy uncles?
I believe that the people of the state of Arizona, are fed up with this type of polititians. Arpaio, Brewer, and the rest of the klaun, currently occupying the state house should be served with an eviction notice on November 2012.
Once again, he just proved he’s a total idiot. SB1070 WOULD NOT have prevented 9/11 because the terrorists came in on valid travel papers; they lived here like any other immigrant and kept a low profile. Unless they were stopped for a traffic violation, the provisions of 1070 would not have stopped them.
I cannot believe that people in Mesa actually voted for this moron!
No Russell you got it all wrong….electing Gore instead of appointing Bush would have prevented 9/11 which was a Bushie conspiracy to put american boots on the ground in the middle east part of the neocon strategy for securing oil, protecting saudi arabia, implementing change and security in the region and finally dealing with the CIA creation the Taliban which had gotten out of hand.
This dude is so delusional.
If SB1070 had been in effect in 1850, the hordes of Mormons who “produced” him would have been deported back to Utah…
What a PUTZ!
Come on Pearce. You are a radical. You rally around racists and perpetuate hate and ignorance (http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/hate…). You were recalled. Noone gives a shi* about what you have to say. Well, except for the money-hungry corporate media.
Pearce is right, like always, if SB1070 had been in effect nationally, 911 could never have happened.
