Bernie Sanders calls Joe Arpaio's Tent City a 'disgrace to this country'
KTAR ^ | March 21, 2016 | Mac & Gaydo

Democratic presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders has labeled an Arizona prison known as Tent City a "disgrace to this country."

"I think that what (Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio) is doing is really a disgrace to this country and it makes us look very, very bad all over the world," Sanders told KTAR News 92.3 FM's Mac & Gaydos on Monday.

Sanders said the jail, which has drawn criticism in the past for being too extreme, is inhumane.

"You don't have prisoners in this country exposed to 130-degree temperatures," he said. "You don't humiliate people. That is not what American justice should be about."

Hopefully the Sanders anarchist agitators that disrupting the Trump events get sent there.

I’d imagine Venezuela, Zimbabwe and Cuba’s prisons aren’t all that different, except higher humidity..............

Please, if Bernie and his ilk have their way they will be putting people in boxcars.

Illegal aliens having a run on freebies and lawlessness enabled by political hacks are the real disgrace to this country.

Bernie belongs in prison along with every other enabling politician that talks of amnesty.

Did Sanders ever denounce the Soviet Gulags when he was there during his honeymoon?

That's a very interesting account. I love how the good sheriff is eager to give Hillary a tour.
