Am I the only one who thinks that prego's comment makes Arpaio's point *perfectly*?

Yeh, but you could get the same effect by beating the crap out of jaywalkers and other minor criminals. Oh wait a minute, according to the D.O.J., they just taser them.

Baylink, you may think this would make a good deterrtent, but this is a jail, not a prison -- just because you're in jail doesn't mean you've necessarily committed a crime (at least, you haven't been tried & convicted of one). Showing possibly innocent people on a "Jail Cam" is kind of wrong, wouldn't you think?
