Tucson — The infamous Sheriff Joe, of Maricopa County fame, found time in between staging his "hunts" for undocumented immigrants to write a book.

The title is "Joe's Law: America's Toughest Sheriff Takes on Illegal Immigration, Drugs and Everything Else that Threatens America."

It seems Sheriff Joe has been peddling his book at book signings across the state and he found himself in Tucson this past week at a local Barnes & Noble. As to be expected, he was greeted by over 100 protesters who shared the audience with the sheriff's supporters.

Reporters on the scene write that though protesters shouted their displeasure at Sheriff Joe for his tactics in apprehending undocumented immigrants, the Sheriff appeared unfazed by their comments. As one reported, "Arpaio continued speaking, laughing and steadily raising his voice to be heard over Medina (protester), but smiling as he did so. He'd clearly done this before."

Store officials report that the Sheriff's book sold out.
