Thursday on Fox Business Network’s “Varney & Company,” Pinal County, AZ Sheriff Paul Babeu said Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton encourages “the Al Sharpton race baiters of our country,” instead of supporting our heroes in law enforcement.

Babeu said, “I think what has happened over this past eight years with Barack Obama certainly, we have seen not only no support for police, but an actual rush to judgment to always portray our heroes in law enforcement as always enforcing the law by color, by race, which couldn’t be further from the truth. Hillary Clinton has encouraged that. You saw at the DNC when she had her convention, when you see this whole narrative that continues to put the focus on law enforcement officers and making mistakes and behaving badly and enforcing according to race instead of supporting us. We have a tough enough job and instead of cheering on the Al Sharpton race baiters of our country that tell absolute lies with, ‘Hands up, don’t shoot,’—that never happened—Hillary Clinton encourages that instead of supporting our heroes in law enforcement.”
