SHERIFF JOE
IS AT IT AGAIN!
You all
remember Sheriff Joe Arpaio of Arizona , who
painted the jail cells pink and made the inmates
wear pink prison garb. Well............
SHERIFF JOE
IS AT IT AGAIN!
Oh, there's MUCH more to
know about Sheriff Joe!
Maricopa County was
spending approx. $18 million dollars a year on
stray animals, like cats and dogs. Sheriff Joe
offered to take the department over, and the
County Supervisors
said okay.
The animal shelters are now all
staffed and operated by prisoners. They feed and
care for the strays. Every animal in his care is
taken out and walked twice daily. He now has
prisoners who are experts in animal nutrition and
behavior. They give great classes for anyone who'd
like to adopt an animal. He has literally taken
stray dogs off the street, given them to the care
of prisoners, and had them place in dog shows.
The best part? His budget for the entire
department is now under $3 million. Teresa and I
adopted a Weimaraner from a Maricopa County
shelter two years ago. He was neutered, and
current on all shots, in great health, and even
had a microchip inserted the day we got him. Cost
us $78.
The prisoners get the benefit of
about $0..28 an hour for working, but most would
work for free, just to be out of their cells for
the day. Most of his budget is for utilities,
building maintenance, etc. He pays the prisoners
out of the fees collected for adopted animals..
I have long wondered when the rest of the
country would take a look at the way he runs the
jail system, and copy some of his ideas. He has a
huge farm, donated to the county years ago, where
inmates can work, and they grow most of their own
fresh vegetables and food, doing all the work and
harvesting by hand.
He has a pretty good
sized hog farm, which provides meat, and
fertilizer. It fertilizes the Christmas tree
nursery, where prisoners work, and you can buy a
living Christmas tree for $6 - $8 for the
Holidays, and plant it later... We have six trees
in our yard from the Prison.
Yup, he was
reelected last year with 83% of the vote.
Now
he's in trouble with the ACLU again. He painted
all his buses and vehicles with a mural, that has
a special hotline phone number painted on it,
where you can call and report suspected illegal
aliens. Immigrations and Customs Enforcement
wasn't doing enough in his eyes, so he had 40
deputies trained specifically for enforcing
immigration laws, started up his hotline, and
bought 4 new buses just for hauling folks back to
the border. He's kind of a 'Git-R Dun' kind of
Sheriff.
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.'
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 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.
