I expected a story about Christmas 'loaf'

This. Is. Awesome. Prison's not SUPPOSED to be a luxury getaway, you boobs...

By FAR the most annoying Farking Christmas tune ever. If I was in prison and had to listen to that, I'd sue for cruel and unusual punishment.

Oh, that's a terrible song. That's right up there with "Christmas Shoes" for me.

Thank God I'm not the only one who hates that stupid "Christmas Shoes" song! It's not sappy, it's not beautiful, it's just stupid! Hi, Mr. Stranger. I know my clothes are all worn and I haven't bathed in weeks, but my mom's dying and we don't have any money, so I'm trying to buy these shoes so she'll be pretty when she dies. And instead of calling children's services or trying to help this soon-to-be-orphan, Mr. Stranger gives him enough money for the shoes. Ta-da! Merry Christmas, folks!

/Amy Grant's "Grown Up Christmas List" is up there for most annoying, too.

I wonder if they play Clarence Carter's "Backdoor Santa"?

True, but there IS the Eighth Amendment which bans cruel and unusual punishments. Of course, Sheriff Joe has never let a minor inconvenience like the United States Constitution get in his way.

Never heard it before I clicked. Now I hold you responsible for this. You're lucky you didn't make it to my ignore list...

I really just want to see that puffed-up douchebag arrested already. Not for this necessarily, but his constant media-whoring and overwhelming sense of self-heroism is grating.

I'm skeptical that Sheriff Joe would do anything to make inmates' existence any nicer. So I'm thinking whatever they're piping in, it's brutal.

/not saying their existence should be better

Last I checked the media wasnt having guns held to their head to sing his praises, comrade.

The guy is a hold out that has a lot of things right - the first goal of prison outside of protecting the population is to motivate prisoners that they dont want to go back.

Lastly - if people keep voting him in, then he is representing his populace. If they're for harsher punishments, then who are we to tell them they cant have their own representative government? Personally I dont give two shiats if you like it or I like it or anyone else. I dont biatch about luxury federal prisons any more than I biatch about the opposite end of the spectrum.

If his constituents are happy and he's not breaking, local, state or federal laws or the constitution then everyone else needs to STFU and mind their own business.

More and more, we're seeing that he *is* "breaking local, state and federal laws and the Constitution".

Gecko Gingrich: More and more, we're seeing that he *is* "breaking local, state and federal laws and the Constitution".

That ultimately would be the call of the state and federal law enforcement agencies, not the over-hyped media machine and internet tough guys.

The FBI is currently hot on Ol' Joe's ass.

Whenever I read about this guy, I start daydreaming about the eventual fate of the warden in Shawshank.

"People everywhere deserve a little Christmas cheer," Arpaio explained in 2008, while ass-raping an inmate with a broomstick.

"Hot on Ol' Joe's ass" isnt a criminal charge last time I checked.

Having to listen to Christmas music is bad enough for a couple hours at the store. All day long, with no escape... I'd hang myself.

/likes Christmas music
//just not as much as stores like playing it

Inquisitive Inquisitor: I'm torn on what to think about him. On one hand I appreciate some of the things he accomplishes. On the other he's kind of a dick and needs to be investigated for his strong-arm tactics.

That's where I was when he first came onto the national scene a few years back. I was like, "Yeah, prison *should* be tough. It *should* be made to make you not want to come back." As time wore on and more about Joe came to light however, I began to realize that he needs to go. He is bad for America.

His tough on crime stance is actually just bigotry with a badge. He has crossed the line from "don't want to come back to prison" to "you will leave prison scarred". He gets re-elected not so much based on his merits, but based on the smear campaigns he runs, which include perfectly timed trumped up charges levied against his opponents.

Random Guy: Damn I have been subjected to torture every time I went to the mall? Who knew, should I get a lawyer?

You can leave the mall as soon as and whenever you wish.

/I'm not saying that I agree with the "Christmas music is torture" stance, just that your logic is flawed.

Since you're just here to be argumentative and pedantic, I'm done with you.

Gecko Gingrich: Since you're just here to be argumentative and pedantic, I'm done with you.

Though I do find the irony in your stance that we shouldn't demonize a guy who relishes in thumbing his nose at the idea of "innocent until proven guilty" because he is "innocent until proven guilty" absolutely delicious.

Authoritarians: Because the Constitution if far too Liberal.
