No matter what people think of Joe Arpaio, he is always entertaining in a way.

This was his "float" in the Fiesta Bowl parade.

He likes the limelight too much, a publicity hound. As exemplified in that float, perhaps. It's not like his Sherrif's Department doesn't have its share of screwups and breakdowns.

You realize most Sheriff departments have vehicles like that? It isn't unique to him.

I find the "almost political" threads on here hilarious. It's immediately obvious what people's views are, but every post has to tread carefully to avoid crossing some indeterminate boundary. Not that I mind the prohibition on politics, politics destroys civility, and this place has been low enough on civility as it is, as of late.

Not every sherrif is riding them around in a parade, though.

Or maybe they are, and I've just not noticed. It could happen....;)

Actually many do. The county Sheriff does here in all the parades and not only that but they have them on display at civic events.

Sheriff Joe lovers should keep in mind that he runs a jail not a prison. A lot of the inmates that he handles haven't been convicted of any crimes. So, just keep that in mind when you hear about the conditions in which he keeps people.
