Thursday, Clarke insisted Black was in the wrong, penning a Facebook post defending himself against the complaint. “Next time he or anyone else pulls this stunt on a plane they may get knocked out. The Sheriff said he does not have to wait for some goof to assault him. He reserves the reasonable right to pre-empt a possible assault,” Clarke wrote in a statement.



There you have it: If you talk to Sheriff Clarke and then walk away, that's a sign that you may or may not try to assault him in the future and that gives him the right to beat you up here and now.

4. Since we all know that the Sheriff will beat us for merely talking to him

can we just start beating him in order to prevent HIS assault on US?

5. And when an armed guy preemptively beats him up or shoots him for looking like a rabid madman....

6. Arpaio goes down, so the deranged sheriff void needed to be filled.

Or so it seems.

7. Another Idiot Who Just Doesn't Know How To Let It Lie

Wouldn't the smart thing to do be just to do nothing? No Facebook, no twitter. Just go on with your job and your life.

What an idiot!
