Sheriff Joe Arpaio is world famous as "America's Toughest Sheriff". Inmates weak pink underwear, eat bologna sandwiches that cost only 40 cents per meal (and for which Joe charges them!) . In Summer inmates bake in Tent City, which recently celebrated its 20th year. When Sheriff Joe put up flags in prisoner's cells, he warned if any are defaced that inmate would get only bread and water for a full week -- and 38 inmates have been punished so far.
But Joe also has a heart of gold. He spends a huge amount of time helping animals, giving indoor space to rescued animals, setting up a no-kill shelter for them, while hardened criminals got sent to the tents. Joe even housed inmates who are veterans in a separate area indoors, providing those with PTSD with special programs to get back on their feet.
Perhaps with sympathy in mind, this afternoon Sheriff Joe asked his fans on social media a question:

Yes, it’s the American thing to do.
Why?
Are all the Military in faraway, remote places able to watch the super bowl?
Depends on their behavior.
A little punishment or reward action.
Voted yes, but yes is losing badly (like so so many other votes I cast!)
Only the ones that are managing to behave well. It should be a reward for good behavior and a stick to punish bad behavior.
Kind of find it hard to believe this is even in his thought process.
Unless, of course, he tells them they can and if one of his guests screws up, take the privilege from all.
How can the U.N. Human Rights commission look itself in the mirror not stopping the good sheriff from dressing his inmates in pink?
LMAO
Go Sheriff Joe... you the man bud.
No.
To quote Gunnery Sergent Hartman:
“You are ALL EQUALLY WORTHLESS!”
If they wanted to watch the Super Bowl, they shouldn’t have committed the crime.
If it keeps them from going off...
Before or after their surf & turf dinner? Will their be hot wings, beer and chips & dip?
Just a select few.
Exactly.
But censored every time the cheerleaders come on and no half time show.
Make it a reward they can do for doing work, getting their GED or other desirable activities you can’t just demand they do.
Are all the Military in faraway, remote places able to watch the super bowl?
Definitely! It is even bigger on bases overseas. I spent 10 years overseas and each base regardless of Iraq, Korea, Italy always showed the Superbowl.
All prisoners in Plymouth,Ma. received all the lobsters they wanted in the 1600’s but they revolted.
No, and he should not allow them to watch MLS games either.
That is entirely up to the judgment of Sheriff Joe.
