Official |
"In a split
vote
Tuesday, the
Pima County
Board of
Supervisors
approved the
Libertarian
Party's
request to
appoint a
perennial
fringe
political
candidate, conspiracy
monger and
outspoken
Holocaust
denier as
a precinct
committeeman. David
Croteau,
who
unsuccessfully
ran for a
series of
political
offices as a
Green Party
candidate
before being
kicked off
that group's
executive
committee
due to his
antisemitic
views, has
now joined
the
Libertarians
and will
fill a
vacant spot
in the
lowest-level
of elected
offices in
the county,
as a party
official in
his
precinct."
[...] "But
Croteau's
pattern of
rhetoric
pushing
pro-Nazi
themes
prompted
"no" votes
from Board
Chair
Adelita
Grijalva and
Supervisor
Matt Heinz,
both
Democrats,
after his
name was
pulled from
the consent
agenda for
an
individual
vote." |

""Is
the
Holocaust a
Hoax? Short
Answer: OF
COURSE. Within
five
minutes, any
intelligent,
open-minded
person can
be convinced
that the
Holocaust
gassings of
World War II
are a
profitable
hoax," began
one such
2017 screed,
which was
(as the
Sentinel
reported at
the time)
re-posted by
perennial
fringe
political
candidate
"Green
Party Dave"

Holocaust
Denial,
Anti-Semitic
Meme |
"David
Croteau,
a frequent
Green Party
candidate
for various
local
offices,
posted a
virulent
anti-Semitic
meme on
Facebook on
Monday — a
post that
accused the
Jews of
"mass
murder" and
"control of
the media"
and
financial
institutions. He
followed it
by sharing a
post denying
that the
Holocaust
took place.
The meme
posted by
the Tucsonan
included the
usual
anti-Jewish
statements
familiar
from too
many hate
screeds:
that the
Jews
instigate
wars and
create
chaos, have
murdered
millions and
cover up
their crimes
by
controlling
the media.
Responding
to comments
on the post,
which
attracted
attention,
Croteau —
who
frequently
shares
conspiratorial
claims that
"the
Zionist
State" was
behind the
World Trade
Center
attacks in
2001 —
again
claimed that
Israel
attacked the
United
States on
9/11." |

Pima County
Sheriff
Candidate
Croteau
Found Guilty
Of Assault |
"Pima County
Sheriff
candidate
for the
Green
Party, David
Croteau,
was found
guilty of
assault,
trespassing
and
disorderly
conduct in
Tucson City
Court.
Croteau’s
nearly
weekly
aggressive
rants
resulted in
an assault
on Army
recruiters,
trespassing
on private
property and
disruption
of normal
operations,
resulting in
the disorderly
conduct charge.
Croteau must
pay a $500
fine or
perform 50
hours of
community
service.
When asked
by Judge
Klotz how
soon the
Court could
expect
Croteau
perform his
community
service,
Crouteau
told the
judge that
he wasn’t
sure as he
was busy now
running for
Pima County
Sheriff.
Croteau did
not call his
witness,
“Locolizrd
Shaun
Occupyearth
Parker,”
after the
recruiters
and
witnesses
testified as
to Croteau’s
abusive and
disruptive
behavior." |
