Pointing fingers

Ginny Dickey’s opinion on the MCSO posse training that occurred in Fountain Hills a few weeks ago left out a very important detail that I feel the residents of Fountain Hills should know, research and form their own opinion.

I was one of those who came out to show my support of the sheriff and his posse after having learned of a protest of the event planned and organized by Citizens for a Better Arizona’s self-appointed leader and friend to Ms. Dickey, Randy Parraz.

Ginny Dickey’s opinion on the MCSO posse training that occurred in Fountain Hills a few weeks ago left out a very important detail that I feel the residents of Fountain Hills should know, research and form their own opinion.

I was one of those who came out to show my support of the sheriff and his posse after having learned of a protest of the event planned and organized by Citizens for a Better Arizona’s self-appointed leader and friend to Ms. Dickey, Randy Parraz.

Randy Parraz’s Facebook page listed the details of the event, and called for all those who are in opposition to Sheriff Arpaio to join him in Fountain Hills to voice their disgust.

Randy Parraz is a community organizer who was trained and mentored by one of the largest public sector unions in the country, the AFL-CIO.

His training has given him the skills necessary to enter communities and turn them upside down by inciting chaos. Sheriff Arpaio has been the target of these tactics for the better part of 10 years, and yet through it all, his unwavering stance to protect the people he works for has never faltered.

Ms. Dickey claimed that law enforcement was not aware of the training that was planned by law enforcement. Ms. Dickey knew. Randy Parraz knew. Does she honestly think we believe that Sheriff Arpaio, who is the law enforcement in Fountain Hills, did not know of his own scheduled training?

Ms. Dickey is pointing fingers at Sheriff Arpaio and there are three fingers pointing right back where they belong -- at her. Please Ms. Dickey, don’t be shy. Give credit where credit is due.

We all know the old adage about opinions. Everyone has one, but that doesn’t make you right.
