SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!

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.
Update on Joe Arpaio

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's lecture series on videotape that he
pipes into the jails.

When asked by a reporter if he had any lecture series by a
Democrat, he replied that a democratic lecture series might explain why a
lot of the inmates were in his jails in the first place.

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 themselfs.

Sheriff Joe
was just reelected Sheriff in Maricopa County, Arizona.
 
RE: SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!

RE: SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!

I just love the part about Sheriff Joe being in trouble with the ACLU over the illegals being detained. About 12 years ago our dept. in CA. was advised by the ACLU that they would be looking into a possible law suit against our Dept. for arresting illegals. Their reason why we should desist was that we were not trained in the Federal immigration laws and could make mistakes on who was or was not illegal.
Now Sheriff Joe trains his deputies in the immigration laws and the ACLU threatens a lawsuit. Tells you a lot about ACLU. I believe they still get federal funds. someone needs to take a hatchet to those funds.

I wish he would run fun our Govenor annd get the dike out
 
RE: SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!

RELH, I know it is a rare moment, but I agree 100% with you. I am so sick of how the ACLU has help destroy our country! This has gone on way too long. I wonder how we could ship them to Iran!
 
RE: SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!

Joe is a good exp: on how things can and should get done.
 
RE: SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!

I'd vote for him for president, maybe he could run a capitol hill prison for congressional crooks.
 
RE: SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!

Dude, I don't think I have ever agreed with you on anything, but I do with this one!!
 
RE: SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!

dude;
If he did that, the prison would be overcrowed for the first time around, but I bet they would not be coming back for a second go around. I do feel it is safe to say that the Dems would outnumber the GOP.
