Subject: THE MARICOPA ARIZONA COUNTY SHERIFF
Very Interesting
Concept! I
agree...
TO THOSE OF YOU NOT
FAMILIAR WITH JOE ARPAIO
HE IS THE
MARICOPA
ARIZONA
COUNTY SHERIFF AND HE
KEEPS GETTING ELECTED OVER AND OVER.
THIS IS ONE OF THE REASONS
WHY:Sheriff Joe Arpaio (in
Arizona) who created the
"tent city jail":He
has jail meals down to 40 cents a serving and charges the inmates for
them.He stopped smoking and porno magazines in the jails.
Took away their weights. Cut off all but "G"
movies.He started chain gangs so the inmates could do free
work on county and city
projects.Then he started chain gangs for women so he wouldn't
get sued for discrimination.He took away cable TV until he found
out there was a federal court order that required cable TV for jails. So he
hooked up the cable TV again only let in the Disney channel and the weather
channel.When asked why the weather channel he replied, so
they will know how hot it's gonna be while they are working on my chain
gangs.He cut off coffee since it has zero nutritional
value.When the inmates complained, he told them, "This
isn't the Ritz/Carlton. If you don't like it, don't come
back."He bought Newt Gingrich' lecture series on videotape
that he pipes into the
jails.
More
on the Arizona Sheriff:With temperatures being even hotter than usual in Phoenix (116
degrees just set a new record), the Associated Press reports: About 2,000
inmates living in a barbed-wire-surrounded tent encampment at the Maricopa
County Jail have been given permission to strip down to their government-issued
pink boxer shorts.On Wednesday, hundreds of men wearing boxers were
either curled up on their bunk beds or chatted in the tents, which reached 138
degrees inside the week before.Many were also swathed in wet, pink
towels as sweat collected on their chests and dripped down to their pink
socks."It feels like we are in a furnace," said James Zanzot, an inmate
who has lived in the tents for 1 year. "It's inhumane."Joe Arpaio, the
tough-guy sheriff who created the tent city and long ago started making his
prisoners wear pink, and eat bologna sandwiches, is not one bit sympathetic He
said Wednesday that he told all of the inmates: "It's 120 degrees in Iraq and
our soldiers are living in tents too, and they have to wear full battle gear,
but they didn't commit any crimes, so shut your damned mouths!"Way to
go, Sheriff! Maybe if all prisons were like this one there would be a lot less
crime and/or repeat offenders. Criminals should be punished for their crimes -
not live in luxury until it's time for their parole, only to go out and commit
another crime so they can get back in to live on taxpayers money and enjoy
things taxpayers can't afford to have for
themselves.If
you agree, pass this on. If not, just delete it.Sheriff Joe was just reelected Sheriff in Maricopa County,
Arizona.
