PHOENIX -- Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio is used to dealing with extreme heat in his Tent City jail.And I hope that each one of them, as he shivers under his blankets, thinks about someone that he knows who didn't do wrong and who is warm and comfy in a nice house or apartment somewhere.
For the next few days, inmates will be facing severe cold weather instead. The overnight temperatures are expected to dip below freezing.
Inmates will have extra blankets for the next few nights, Arpaio said. They will also be issued pink thermal underwear to go with their standard pink boxers.
The tents used for the jail date back to the Korean War.
"The conditions here are mild compared to what happened in 1950 in 'frozen Chosin,'" Arpaio said, referring to the Korean War battle.

Sheriff Joe Arpaio 8, Illegal Aliens and ACLU 0
This story really began a couple of months ago when Pruitt's Furniture in Phoenix, Arizona hired off-duty sheriff's deputies to keep day laborers--most of whom were suspected illegal aliens--off it's property. The day laborers were doing what day laborers always seem to do--drinking and urinating in public, using profanity towards passers-by, and otherwise scaring off the store's actual customers. So the store sought help and got it. Off-duty deputies chased the day laborers off and on-duty deputies managed to arrest 24 illegal aliens for traffic and other offenses near the store.
Good for Sheriff Arpaio!
So what happens whenever American values and law and order start to win? The ACLU crawls out from under a rock. And this time that communist party front group helped a few illegal-alien advocacy groups set up protests in front of the store, a move designed solely to further harm the store's business. And every Saturday for the past six weeks, they've gathered at Pruitt's Furniture to try to shut the store down.
Well Sheriff Arpaio doesn't play, nor does he sit back while hostile groups comprised of people who aren't even supposed to be in our country do their best to shut an American-owned business down. This past week-end, he arrested eight of the protesters on suspicion of being in our country illegally.
"I thought it was time to do something more about it," Sheriff Joe Arpaio said. "The Pruitt's situation is getting out of hand. They are demonstrating every week and destroying this business. I don't think that's fair."
His deputies have also arrested ACLU legal director Daniel Pochoda for trespassing after Pochoda reportedly refused to move his car off from Pruitt's Furniture's property. (Another example of how the ACLU only supports some rights for some people.) Ideally, all of the arrested illegals will be deported and in a perfect world, Pochoda would be deported along with them.
I support Sheriff Joe and I'm sure that many of you do too. Spread this news around and let's hope that other municipalities start following suit.

What a satisfying day
So I get up this morning and get the news from Michelle Malkin that Elvira Arellano was officially deported and is now back in her rightful place--Mexico. If she comes back again I hope that she gets prison time, ideally in Maricopa County, Arizona where Sheriff Joe Arpaio knows how to handle his prisoners.
Then I head for the bus, and get to the stop just in time to catch a seat next to my pal, the bus bitch. As usual, she was pretending to be snoozing with her handbag parked on the seat next to her to make sure that no one who really needs the extra leg room can get the seat. I rather loudly asked her if she wouldn't mind moving her bag so that I could sit down, and the look that she gave me...Oh man, if looks could kill I'd have dropped right there. I thought for a second that she was going to say something but she didn't. However her hostile glare spoke volumes. How dare I ask her to move her bag and make her give up one of the two best seats on the bus? Obviously I was unaware that she's the queen of Loudon County's DC10 Bus and owns both those seats even though she had no apparent disability and isn't even that tall. So I plunked down next to her, enjoying her body language that conveyed all too clearly just how bothered she was. In fact I felt so guilty that I started to cough, and I for some reason I coughed off and on most of the way to my stop.
Then I get the amusing news that the GreenStone radio network, a year-old joint venture between Jane Fonda and Gloria Steinem, accepted it's failure and closed down today. Apparently no one wanted to listen to or advertise on shows that just bitched and whined. Heck, any married guy gets enough of that already without having to dial more up on his car radio. Of course the show's producers claim that women just can't get ahead in today's radio market, but they overlook the fact that there are many wildly successful women on the radio, including Laura Ingram, Tammy Bruce and Laura Schlessinger. The difference between those women and "Hanoi Jane" Fonda is that Ingram, Bruce and Schlessinger say intelligent things and talk about topics that people actually want to hear. So Bye-Bye, Gloria and Jane. You won't be missed, and frankly I didn't even know that you two bimbettes had a show until news of it's failure broke today.
In other good news, the weather's finally cooling off, and I got to get out and shoot this week-end. I didn't get any pictures of me shooting but it was good because the old fuddy-duddies who cry and pee themselves any time I practice any tactical shooting there (because we all know that guns were meant to be fired slowly from a rest at paper targets...) were absent so I got to practice my "shoot-and-scoot" fire-on-the-move drills, and I shot my H&K P7 until it was hot enough to burn my finger. Then I let it cool for a bit and shot it until it burned me some more. I love my P7 and it's one--and only--flaw in my opinion is the fact that due to it's gas system, the top of the frame above the trigger guard gets dangerously hot after several dozen rapid-fire rounds. In actual pistol combat it's unlikely that a shooter will fire that many rounds, but it is a pain on the practice courses.
And since I have no photos from that shoot, here's a gratuitous picture of my nephew, The Spud, learning how to lay down suppressing fire with the Browning 1919A4 heavy machine gun.

Illegals are at it again

Now the illegals are tangling with Sheriff Joe Arpaio, the man who keeps order in Maricopa County, AZ by putting prisoners in tents in the desert, making them wear pink underwear, and bringing back chain gangs for women. Arpaio has also been arresting illegal aliens and cherging them with conspiracy for smuggling themselves into our country. And in reasponse, illegals marched in front of his office and warned him that unless he respected the hispanic community, they would oust him at the polls.
Full story here.
Amazing. People who aren't evewn supposed to be in our country threaten our elected officials and insist that they--the illegals--will vote our public servants out of office unless we give them their way.
This kind of puts Georgia's flap about voter ID's in perspective, doesn't it?
Story here.
Georgia's legislature continues to pass legislation requiring that anyone who shows up to cast a vote and have a say in our governing ourselves must show identification to prove that he or she is in the country legally and actually entitled to vote. But it's been thwarted by a leftist judge and critics who make the phony argument that there are people out there who want to vote but cannot afford to get an ID card or make a trip to a government office to get one.
Let's be real. The only people in Georgia or anywhere else in this country who cannot produce photo identification of some sort are illegals and those people who only exist on election day to cast ballots in the names of people long dead or moved away.
Not suprisingly, all of the challenges against the Voter ID law are Democrat or groups that support the Democrats entirely. Jimmy Carter is right in there condemning this law as "racist" but then he thinks that Hugo Chavez, Venezuelan dictator, is a nice guy. It's sad to see our former President losing his mind to senility but even sadder to see his handlers use him as a prop on issues like this.
