Thursday, September 13, 10:00 am – 3:00 pm, PEACEFUL PROTEST.
A convicted human rights criminal, Joe Arpaio, has been invited to speak at the Monterey Peninsula Republican Women Federated “Liberty Luncheon” at Rancho Canada Golf Club, 4860 Carmel Valley Road, in Carmel Valley. There will be a peaceful protest by those who object to hosting such a person in our neighborhood. Arpaio’s racism and abuse of powers is epic. He was prosecuted and convicted by Trump’s own Justice Department. His Sheriff’s Office didn’t properly investigate more than 400 alleged sex crimes, many of them involving child molestation. He “fostered horrendous jail conditions, reckless police operations, and carried out personal vendettas against political rivals and members of the press.” Arpaio violated the Constitutional rights of thousands of citizens and committed outright cruelty against undocumented workers. Also on the bill is gun rights advocate Charlie Kirk, “Trump’s Man on Campus” and founder of Turning Point, an astroturf rightwing student group, who believes white privilege is a “racist idea.”
The organizer, Siobhan Warwick Griffin Wolfe, can be contacted on Facebook.
