Got DUI? Join the Chain Gang and Wear Pink Undies!

Alex

Arizona sheriff Joe Arpaio, dubbed "America's toughest sheriff," has a plan to cut down on drunk drivers: force 'em to work in a chain gang and make 'em wear pink underwear!

"Maybe this will warn people - knock it off, don't drink and drive," Mr Arpaio said. "You'll end up in pink underwear on the chain gang."

Do you think Sheriff Joe is right? Or is it just cruel and unusual punishment?

@fran so 120 degrees in a tent isn't abusive? why don't you try it then if its so great for ya. and don't sling around the term bleeding heart liberal. the word liberal is not an insult so stop treating it as one and if anyone wanted a political argument they wouldn't be on Neatorama

I am so tired of the bleeding heart liberals waxing poetic on the poor downtrodden CRIMINALS. They're criminals and none of the above mentioned punishments are abusive in ANY way. Good grief. I think all prisons should be like Supermax. 23 hours a day of solitary.

this guy is nothing more than a masochistic human rights offender. really, if he was pulling this form of "justice" in some small country everyone would be crying foul. and really, if his brand of "justice" is working so well, why is tents still full?

ok.. wearing pink underwear and watching the disney channel is more unusual than it is cruel. in fact, i don't think it's cruel at all. especially because dudes wearing pink is not at all a rarity anymore, and seeing their underwear hanging out of their pants is something we see on an everyday basis, criminals and civilians alike.

@Thomas: i agree. if bars had breathalizers or offered a free breathalizer keychain with the third shot, people might take a little more responsibility. my friend got a DWI and wasn't even intoxicated. she had one beer and they didn't make her take the breathalizer. she's on probation and her license was suspended (not sure for how long, though). it's on her record. and she probably wears pink underwear willingly.

a local man is taking our penile system for granted by committing petty theft and turning himself in every time. he has been in and out of jail for years and i bet he doesn't plan on stopping these actions. i can think of no other reason he would do this than the homely environments provided by our prisons. i mean, free room and board, free meals, free clothes... i'm wondering how many criminals commit crimes just so they can go to jail. i'm sure that's why there are so many returning convicts too.

My oldest daughter's second husband was Mexican-American, and my middle daughter's husband was born in Mexico. All three kids have brown eyes, two have reddish brown hair, one has black hair, and his eyes are darkest brown. One has very white skin, one has medium white skin, and one has brown skin. They're all good-looking. One neighbor family has a Jewish, blue-eyed father, a half-black mom, and two of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen, one with blue eyes, the other with brown. That's the future!

Like southsidecharlie, I thought the large number of green-eyed people seemed, well, incorrect. At any rate, the first woman reminds me a lot of a young Alex Kingston.

This is so inaccurate!!! None of these people are super, super fat??? Look at all the fat fucks we have now, surely they will blow up even more in the future. Evolution will create larger, wider feet to support the sloppy mess. Of course Americans heads will be much smaller because it's obvious Americans don't use their brains to think so no use wasting space. Their ears will be uneven size because most people have a cell phone glued to one ear, constantly jabbering mindless idiocies to some other moronic fatso. Their jaws will be larger and more defined to gobble down more GMO, processed, poisonous, slop that they think is food. And there shouldn't be any old people on here either because between being obscenely obese, dumb as a stump, and being poisoned by every damn thing from the vaccines they are given at birth to the high fructose, GMO, nutrient deficient formula they are fed as a baby, the chemtrails in the sky, the fluoride in the water and all the other shit they are attacked with daily the average life will probably be about 35 yrs. This country has been turned into a sick joke and we let it happen. Shameful.
