Ariz. Sheriff to Run Chain Gang at All Star Game
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Published: July 7, 2011 at 10:51 AM ET

PHOENIX (AP) — Fans entering Chase Field for the Major League Baseball All Star Game will get to see one of Sheriff Joe Arpaio's (ar-PY'-oh) chain gangs picking up trash.

The Arizona Republic reports a group of inmates from the Maricopa County sheriff's holding area for suspected illegal immigrants will be on the chain gang with drunken driving offenders. All will be chained together and decked out in their striped jail uniforms.

4. Well, MLB did have a chance to move the game from racist-Zona.

Now the billionaires and millionaires will get to see the slaves in action. More and more, the world cries for the guillotine to take care of the criminal rich.

At least, we should make sure to boycott any celebrity or corporation participating in the KKK games in racist-Zona.
