Sheriff Joe Arpaio 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.

With temperatures being even hotter than usual in Phoenix about 2,000 inmates living in a barbed-wire-surrounded tent encampment have been given permission to strip down to their government-issued pink boxer shorts. Hundreds of men wearing boxers are either curled up on their bunk beds or chatted in the tents, which reached 58C inside the week before. Many are 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 said: "It's 48C 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!"
