Sheriff Joe is at it again…

Maricopa County, Arizona 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 fertilize r. 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 O NE OF THE REASONS WHY:
Sheriff Joe Arpaio (In Arizona) 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.

What is it you dont understand about Racial Profiling? Herr Sheriff has proven he is an unapologetic Racial Profiler. He and his kkkops stop anyone brown! Whether they be citizens, Hispanic or Native Americans.

Arpaio must stop his Racial Profiling. He is terrorizing the communities. He is racist and a publicity hound.

The Mayors begged Arpaio to LEAVE!
He should listen to the mayors and get out of their towns. Why doesn´t he police the city? Instead he racial profiles the Hispanic Community. Shame on him!

Thanks for your comments Dee… I live in NJ so I know a whole lot about racial profiling. I don’t know Arpaio or what else he’s known for, but if he makes prisoners wear pink and treats them as prisoners should be treated that’s a good thing! The rest of the country would be wise to follow the same approach (with prisoners!). If he’s guilty of profiling, that’s a bad thing - I suggest lighting a bag of poop on his porch, ringing the bell and running away… rallying the anti-Arpaio vote probably won’t work since, referring to the post, he apparently won the last election by an 83% landslide and illegal immigrants aren’t eligible to go to the polls!
