Go Joe!
Arpaio subsequently started to sell said customized pink boxers (with the Maricopa County Sheriff's logo and "Go Joe") as a fund-raiser for the Sheriff's Posse Association. It's a vicious cycle, folks.

Joe has said that he does, in fact, believe that appearance alone is sufficient cause to pull over individuals and question them about their immigration status.
