This is what jails should be like!!!!!

[Schwarz]

From another board but I FVCKING agree with it 100%

-----------------------------------------------------------------------


F'kin right, this guy has the idea!

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.

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 themselves.

If you agree, pass this on. If not, just delete it.

Sheriff Joe was just reelected Sheriff in Maricopa County, Arizona.

i like they way that sounds. i would just be concerned that some inmate is going to sue for not being treated fairly then they will get all they cushy crap back.

That's part of the problem. There's that liberal idiot element in society that's giving these scum an easy time in jail. Our whole legal system needs a kick up the backside. If you commit a crime you should be treated like a criminal ie NO FVCKING RIGHTS WHATSOEVER!!!!

We invaded Iraq and give countries like Iran "the finger" but I tell you what they got their law and order policy right in those countries. If you steal you get a hand cut off, if you go to prison you share a tiny cell with 10 other prisoners and have to shit in a hole in the floor!!!!!!!!

Bring back public beatings, whiipings and executions and let's start treating criminals like the scum they are!!!!!

Take note Anaboic CEO, any more of your cute little "protein tricks" and you'll be living in a tent and the only BuffHottie in sight will be called Brian.

[Teabagger]

Sheriff Joe is a retired DEA guy...he was a stud...worked undercover and had some major busts. He has been sheriff for about 12 years or longer and the tent city has been around like 10years. He has been sued about the treatment but they have never won........

People do not like to go back to jail in Arizona....it is not pleasent...I've heard.

Yeah, then lets bring back lynching as well.

I mean, gosh, lets just throw out due process the way countries like Iran and Iraq do and gas the citizens we consider evil. No, not gas, they should be tortured. Hell yeah, lets just go ahead and torture all of the people we think are evil based on assumptions and figures we need to make our prison system bring in more money with more bodies so we can get some free work out of them.

YES, then we won't have to have a modern day industrial slave complex by making the most petty things illegal. No, then we can just say "You're evil. Go work in this field for FREE."

I mean, it sure is better than just throwing in the small number of truly crazed individuals that are a threat to society in a place separated from society. Lets just invade people's lives, make their lives living shit holes because we deem them evil, cause them to do something evil against the general populace, and put them to work for FREE.

It makes you look a heck of a lot better doing it this way then just rounding up evil people, taking them from their homes, and putting them to work for FREE. FREE labor is the BEST.

I ain't talkiung about throwing out due process. Have due process but make sure:

1. It ain't weighted in favour of the criminal like it is now
2. make sure the jusdges aren't soft liberals
3. Make sure that the punnishment is harsh

And your damn well right that peopl who are "evil" (as you put it) should be punished!!! And if you don't think so maybe you'll change your mind when you get muged, or your house gets burgled or your g/f gets raped!

For too long criminals have had it their way thanks to liberal ppl like you...the "oh let's look at why they do these things" or "they're not really bad let's give them a second chance"!!!! Let's start thinking a little more about protecting the rights of the ppl who bother to follow the rules in society!!!!

Damn, I'm not even liberal. I'm a gun totin' southern conservative to be honest, but don't get me started there.

Criminals have had it their way? Hell, past criminals and most people that are on their way to becoming criminals can't even find jobs. I don't know if thats having their way or not. Then again, considering that most of them are "have nots" i guess they "have something" now as you put it.

Let me go through your 3 while I'm here:

Have due process but make sure:

1. It ain't weighted in favour of the criminal like it is now

Weighted in favour of the criminal? Uumm, its weighted in no one's favor now ... supposedly. Its supposed to be "innocent until proven guilty" but under your flawed system, you've already labelled the defendant a criminal when this hasn't even been determined. Just because you're accused of a crime doesn't mean you did it.

2. make sure the jusdges aren't soft liberals

Wow, now thats going to be pretty hard to strictly define. "Make sure the jusdges aren't soft liberals". I'm going to assume you meant judges but how the hell are you going to determine if judges are soft liberals? If you automatically assume defendants are criminals under your system, then I guess its safe to assume that all judges that aren't republicans are soft liberals.

3. Make sure that the punnishment is harsh

We're going to chop the hands off of steroid possessors so they can't inject themselves. Yeah, now thats pretty damned harsh. :-) We should also stone women that get pregnant out of wedlock. Or should we sew an "A" onto their clothes for adulteress.

Wow, can anybody say "flawed system of government"? Well, according to someone else in another thread, people like you will eventually die out so I'm not too worried.

At any rate, I don't recall saying that evil people shouldn't be punished. I just remember putting an interesting twist on it, but in all honesty I don't remember what I said on this board concerning the situation. I do know I've been going off and on about it to real people concerning the whole "liberation of Iraq" because they kill their own civilians when in fact those civilians are considered evil by the Iraqis in power at the time. We do the same thing here so its a bit of a hypocrisy for us to kill/torture our own civilians we consider evil yet when someone else does it and we don't like the philosophy they use for determining evil, we think its a travesty and decide that they're evil people for having a different philosophy on as to whats evil and what isn't.

You, and just about everyone else I know and don't know, seem to have a pick and choose perspective on how to handle evil people. ;-) For a bunch of christians that are supposed to turn the other cheek, you make me wonder if you're just a bunch of eye for an eye hebrews.

Not that there's anything wrong with "eye for an eye". I think all violent criminals should be put away, punished, and well, upon release, reacclimated with society.

yes...yes...i like the sound of that.......

[spywizard]

fairly.... that's the problem.. compared to what.??

i agree with the situation, and i think it's just a medium or low risk prison.. no murders or that nature there..

[Chookster]

i saw a special on this guy...hes a real hard ass. maricopa has one of the highest number of meth convictions they are always on cops. rock on sheriff joe

[C_Bino]

I saw the special on him as well one night. He runs a tight prison and it works. I cant stand the idea of people who are convicted murderers etc having a better living situation than myself. In fact just this year in a sociology course I am taking I found out (to my shock) that in a Federal Penitentiary the cost to house a single inmate, including all supplies/food etc etc for one year comes in at $87 000. I mean that is more than the average Joe makes in a year. I like the tent-prison idea.

Yeah dude, they got it pretty good in Canada.

A buddy of mine was a prisoner in a minimum security institution out in BC, they didnt even live in cages they were like portable apartments, and they even had a friggen golf course! (i'm serious)

GOLF COURSE! Wow, that is where my tax money goes...I mean that is just beyond necessary. I feel they should be given the essentials to live a life free of diseases/unsanitary conditions etc, but that is it.

you can do that anyway, just dont call me a bitch. i demand respect you know... or at least a reach around.

[Panzerfaust]

All jails/prisons should be like this.

[symatech]

Arpaio's an interesting character that's for sure. He's definately hard-core, but not nearly as hard-core as he proclaims himself to be. He claims credit for things he never did and claims credit for things he didn't conceive. He also has cost the state millions in lawsuits from police officers, families, former inmates etc.

And when running he refused to read anything that was unscripted, that means no debates. As I understand there is a large movement in Arizona law enforcement to remove him from office.

But I do like the pink boxers, socks, uniforms, handcuffs he makes the inmates wear. And the comment about the soldiers is fantastic, especially since they are wearing heavy gear and not just sitting around in their boxers all the time.

big rocks to small rocks... i like it

[Kärnfysikern]

When the inmates complained, he told them, "This isn't the Ritz/Carlton. If you don't like it, don't come back."

Damn thats ****ing brilliant

I think prison sentances should be only for those that comit crimes that make them a danger to have out in society and I think if they have done such crimes they should be treated like it. That means gulag workcamps.

But the laws would need to be checked over carefully first before making jails worse because ALOT of "criminals" simply do not deserve to be in jail.

[cb25]

I'm a huge fan of Sheriff Joe...i don't agree with everything he says/does, but overall i love what he's done. Pretty nice guy in person too...i've met him a few times, lived a few minutes from him.

[63190]

Ah yes. Sheriff Joe. Heard of him long ago when I went to tech school in AZ.

yea i did some time in a county jail. It sucks everything about jail sukcs, there are no pillows, no privacy at all, 24 hours a day you see the same people and the food sucks. Needless to say jail is a horrable place and i don't think this guy should be that hard on them but i think he does have somthing good going for her.

Yeh i agree, prison was a nightmare, but what this guy is doing isnt bad compared to what 90% of prisons arent doing which is not giving a shit about the prisoners or having any concern on rehabilitating them, i would rather have spent my time in that place then where i did my bid without a doubt, jmo.

[~fuelforfire~]

thats dumb not letting them do physical activity.

[gymnutt]

Props to him. I have many complaints with the Penal system, however, I don't think my tax dollars should fund criminals with niceties when hardworking families starve and go without adequate healthcare.

thank god i live in canada our jails look like middle class retirment homes
