SHERIFF JOE IS AT IT AGAIN!

Maricopa County was spending approximately $18 million dollars a year on stray animals, like cats and dogs. Sheriff Joe offered to take thedepartment over, and the County Supervisors said okay.The animal shelters are now all staffed and operated by prisoners. Theyfeed and care for the strays. Every animal in his care is taken out and walkedtwice 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 ofprisoners, and had them place in dog shows.The best part; His budget for the entire department is now under $3million.Teresa and I adopted a Weimaraner from a Maricopa County shelter twoyearsago. He was neutered, and current on all shots, in great health, and evenhad a microchip inserted the day we got him. Cost us $78. The prisonersgetth e benefit of about $0.28 an hour for working, but most would work free, just to be out of their cells for the day. Most of his budget is forutilities, building maintenance, etc. He pays the prisoners out of the feescollected for adopted animals.I have long wondered when the rest of the country would look at theway 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 growmostof their own fresh vegetables and food, doing all the work and harvestingbyhand. He has a pretty good-sized hog farm, which provides me at, 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 re-elected last year with 83% of the vote.Now he's in trouble with the ACLU again. He painted all his buses andvehicles with a mural that has a special hotline phone number painted on it, where you can call and report suspected illegal aliens. ImmigrationsandCustoms Enforcement wasn't doing enough in his eyes, so he had 40deputiestrained specifically for enforcing immigration laws, started up hishotline,and bought 4 new buses just for hauling folks back to the border. He's kindof 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 forthem.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 andcityprojects. Then he started chain gangs for women so he wouldn't be sued fordiscrimination.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 andonly let in The Disney Channel and The Weather Channel.When asked why the Weather Channel he replied, "So they will know how hotit'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 theRitz/Carlton.....If you don't like it, don't come back."He bought Newt Gingrich's lecture series on videotape that he pipes into thejails. When asked by a reporter if he had any lecture series by aDemocrat,he replied that a democratic lecture series might explain why a lot oftheinmates 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 atthe Maricopa County Jail have been given permission to strip down totheirgovernment-issued pink boxer shorts.On Wednesday, hundreds of men wearing boxers were either curled up ontheirbunk beds or chatted in the tents, which reached 138 degrees inside theweekbefore. Many were also swathed in wet, pink towels as sweat collected ontheir chests and dripped down to their PINK SOCKS."'It feels like we are in a furnace," Said James Zanzot, an inmate whohaslived in the TENTS for 1 year. "It's inhumane."Joe Arpaio, the tough-guy sheriff who created the tent city and long agostarted making his prisoners wear pink, and eat bologna sandwiches, isnotone 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 theyhave to wear full battle gear, but they didn't commit any crimes, so shutyour damned mouths!"Way To Go, Sheriff!Maybe if all prisons were like this one there would be a lot less crimeand/or repeat offenders. Criminals should be punished for their crimes -notlive in luxury until it's time for their parole, only to go out andcommitano ther crime so they can get back in to live on taxpayers money andenjoythings taxpayers can't afford to have for themselves.If you agree, pass this on... Sheriff Joe was just reelected Sheriff in Maricopa County , Arizona .

Yes Mamm, he does have a handle on what law breakers should have after they willing give up their freedom and gives them something to think about when they get out.

Thats them Liberals that insist on free medical and welfare and subs. for the illegals and soft treatment and 3 squares a day in an air con hooch for criminals paying their debt to society..

Lovely. Can we clone him and get parts up in Canada?
