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 Dirty 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!

This is an excerpt taken from the Maricopa County Sheriff's web site, and relates to his pink prisoner program! In my personal opinion this web site is must read for all American's who have lost faith in our system! Its logical organized and actually informs the people of the county what is going on in their world. Its enough to make me want to move there!

Help Joe Arpaio, “America’s Toughest Sheriff,” prevent youth violence and protect America. Sheriff Joe is now making his replica PINK UNDERWEAR and PINK HANDCUFFS available to the general public through the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office Youth Assistance Foundation (YAF). All proceeds go toward the positive mentoring of the youth within Maricopa County, Arizona.
These PINK UNDERWEAR and PINK HANDCUFFS are the very same ones worn by the 10,000 inmates in Sheriff Joe’s jails. Now you can wear them too – and help Sheriff Joe help the youth of Maricopa County.
WHY PINK? When Sheriff Joe learned that Maricopa County Inmates were stealing their jailhouse whites, he had all the boxers dyed pink. Inventory control improved, so the undershirts followed – then the sheets, socks, towels, and everything down to the handcuffs.
Of course, Sheriff Joe still issues the old fashioned black-and-white prison stripes that have been featured on national news. You can see Sheriff Joe’s PINK HANDCUFFS and prison stripes on Maricopa County chain gangs or at the Sheriff’s web-cast booking sessions on www.MCSO.org.
Joe Arpaio has proudly served as Maricopa County Sheriff since 1993. Sheriff Joe’s PINK UNDERWEAR, PINK HANDCUFFS, and his innovative law enforcement programs have been featured in more than 2,000 U.S. and foreign newspapers, magazines, and TV.

A Harley biker is riding by the zoo in Washington , DC when he sees a little girl leaning into the lion's cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, under the eyes of her screaming parents.
The biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and hits the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch.
Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back letting go of the girl, and the biker brings her to her terrified parents, who thank him endlessly. A reporter has watched the whole event.
The reporter addressing the Harley rider says, 'Sir, this was the most gallant and brave thing I've seen a man do in my whole life.'
The Harley rider replies, 'Why, it was nothing, really, the lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger and acted as I felt right.'
The reporter says, 'Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm a journalist, you know, and tomorrow's paper will have this story on the front page... So, what do you do for a living and what political affiliation do you have?'
The biker replies, 'I'm a U.S. Marine and a Republican.' The journalist leaves.
The following morning the biker buys the paper to see if it indeed brings news of his actions, and reads, on the front page:
U.S. MARINE ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH

Nebraska, the heart of the American heartland became a socialist state this year.
I man I know moved to Omaha for work. He and his wife chose a neighborhood with some of the highest property taxes in the state because they wanted their children to go to the best schools possible, one of the noble American sacrifices that parents make for their children in this country.
Nebraska then decided to pool the states taxes for education. So now while this man and his wife suffer with the highest property taxes in the state, they were informed that their schools budget was cut in half and that the school would be dropping programs.
Nebraska’s new socialist plan didn’t make any consideration for those already paying the highest taxes.
Illinois has chosen not just to embrace socialism, but to go all the way and become communist.
Illinois is tagging its people like animals, placing micro chips in license plates and driver’s licenses and putting up thousands of cameras so every movement you make can be tracked.
If you have received new plates this year and not just a sticker, or you got a drivers license this year, you’ve been tagged. The new license plates and drivers licenses have chips in them with all your personal information.
Everything about you will be broadcast when you drive by a sensor on the highway, walk into a building or pass a sensor on the street. Police radar will automatically receive all your information when they zap you.
The systems first use, on the highway at least, is for sending you speeding tickets in the mail. Total Nazi control of your life is just an added bonus.
I am sure if you ask your local officials about the tagging they will tell you not to worry, the system is for your own safety and won’t be abused.
And maybe their right, I mean Illinois has the noblest state government in the Union! Not a narcissistic, corrupt, power hungry, megalomaniac in the bunch! And, its not like Illinois lied to us about our tollway system being temporary. That's coming out soon, right?
Put a frog in boiling water it jumps out. Put a frog in warm water and slowly turn up the heat it stays calm until it boils to death.
We are in hot water. Have you noticed?
What’s happening to Illinois, Nebraska and America has happened many times before. And every time the people couldn’t believe it was happening. Couldn’t understand why it was happening to them, and couldn’t understand how something like this could happen.
Government tyranny is happening. American Democrats are taking everything away from the people under the guise of being a friend of the people.
You can still stop this with your voices and your votes. If you don’t, then plan on listening to yourself say, “I can’t believe this is happening” for the rest or your life.

That being said. I have had many conversations with intelligent men and women of accomplishment, some of whom were direct contributors to Barack Obamas Senate campaign.
And even they agree that the democrat controlled government, executive and judicial is completely out of control. Its so bad I don't even see the liberally biased media trying to cover up the rampant lunacy any more.
Due to all I have read and the discussions I have had. I am abandoning all hope of a Universal Health Care plan. In fact I pray that the plan before the Senate now, fails.
I will always believe that a Universal Health Care plan is the right thing to do. I do not retract any of my arguments for it.
In my recently changed opinion The United States Government can't handle it.
Furthermore, I will only be voting Republican for every seat in every election from now on until every Incompetent Democrat out of office!
Dear Republican friends and family. I am back. Sorry I left.
Democrats in Illinois and the federal government just spent my last ounce of patience!

President George W. Bush was a right wing capitalist nut job.
And he whole time you were fixated on them, Congress took your car and your house and gave them to their friends.
America’s problems weren’t created by a political party, socialism or capitalism. America’s problems were caused by apathy and greed. Not just the apathy and greed of our government, the apathy and greed of everyone.
Our politicians are 20% darker reflection of ourselves.
I truly, deeply believe that the ONLY way America can save itself from ruin is if the people wake up, get involved and start firing Congressman and Senators.
If your Congressman or Senator actually worried that they would lose their jobs if they screwed you, it wouldn’t matter what the mentality of the President was. Congress would look after you.
But you’ve been sleeping now for 30 years.
Time to wake up!

In honor of the 44th President of the United States , Baskin-Robbins Ice Cream has introduced a new flavor: " Barocky Road ."
Barocky Road is a blend of half vanilla, half chocolate, and surrounded by nuts and flakes. The vanilla portion of the mix is not openly advertised and usually denied as an ingredient. The nuts and flakes are all very bitter and hard to swallow.
The cost is $100.00 per scoop.
When purchased it will be presented to you in a large beautiful cone, but after you pay for it, the ice cream is taken away and given to the person in line behind you at no charge.
You are left with an empty wallet and no change, holding an empty cone with no hope of getting any ice cream..
Are you stimulated?

Deaf people can benefit from a smoke alarm that emits a strong odor of wasabi. The Japanese device has been shown to wake deaf sleepers within three minutes.
Instead of an ear-piercing wail, the device unleashes the chemical compound allyl isothiocyanate, which gives horseradish, mustard, and wasabi their bite. A red LED on the alarm also starts flashing when smoke is detected.
