Now that Dane County Sheriff Kalvin Barrett has proclaimed that jail inmates will be called “residents” from here on out, so as not to stigmatize and dehumanize them, we have a few humble renaming suggestions for him to consider.

After all, why stop there? As Rep. Sheila Stubbs said, it’s “critical that we recognize people as decent people and as citizens.” Even people accused of heinous things like battery and sexual assault, apparently. And even those who aren’t, you know, actually citizens.

I can think of a few words to call this “Sheriff”. /spit.

PPs ... penal people.

Ha! You actually think that some critical thinking is going on here? ;)

[CodeToad]

Let’s rename the deputies as “assistants” or “the help” or “clerks”.

LOL, gotta love clever Freepers.

[healy61]

Does “freeloader” refer to inmates or the Sheriff?

[Keyhopper]

Oh you definitely win!

[reg45]

The Sheriff should be referred to as a Demwit.

Penal implants.

[smvoice]

Lol!

And when the penal implants riot, we could call that penal disfunction.

Bring back “Hard Labor”, corporal punishment’s and public shamming. A few months digging ditches, a public spanking or a few days in the stocks where your neighbors can see you can be attitude altering.
