Thank you for keeping my post alive, and I am an independent voter. The pink underwear is just a small humiliation.
There are no mattresses on the bed, prisoners sleep on solid steel bunks.
The food looks like vomit, and has a stench, it is ground up ostrich form Joe Arpio's ostrich ranch.
Joe Arpaio's sister runs the commissary and makes a cool million a year.
My friend is anglo, and has asthma. The dust was killing him, and no medical help was offered.
Some prisoners are made to sleep in tents in the hot Arizona desert.
One inmate got 30 days for shoplifting, and hung himself in the shower because he could not stand the tents.
Prisoners are kept marching from jail cell to cell at all hours, and are deprived of sleep.
There is so much more bad news about Sheriff Joe Arpaio who runs Maricopa county in Google.
It has been said that Joe Arpaio was a major force behind the new Arizona profile law. Do yourself a favor check out what is going on in Arizona before traveling there.
Okay, NOW you're just full of shit.
The beds have mattresses. They don't have GOOD mattresses - in fact, I'm pretty sure they're just foam pads, because that's what MOST jails use - but they have mattresses. And I for one don't give a smuck if they sleep on the ground in a sleeping bag.
Of course the food isn't high quality. It's a jail, not a frigging hotel. It's not ostrich, though, dumbass. Mostly it's bologna and other foods Arpaio can buy on surplus. Once again, ask me if I care.
SOMEONE is going to be paid for running the commissary. Do I give a rat's ass if it's Arpaio's sister or not? The man's already saving his county a bundle, so it's not like anyone can complain about his family "cheating the taxpayers".
Inmates are provided basic medical care. It's a jail, not a concentration camp.
Oh, wah frigging wah. They have to sleep in tents. So the hell what? As Sheriff Arpaio himself brilliantly said, our soldiers are enduring much hotter, harsher conditions in the same sort of tents, so suck it the hell up and grow a pair. You want air conditioning? Don't break the law.
At what point am I supposed to start sobbing over some pansy who couldn't live in a tent for 30 days? Sounds like HIS problem, not mine.
Like the guards really have nothing better to do than march the inmates around 24 hours a day for no reason. Give me a break.
Do us ALL a favor, and just don't travel here. If we want testicle-deprived weasels, we'll just neuter some ourselves.
