Arizona Prisoners Pedal To Watch Porn And Oprah
TO Tent City Jail in Phoenix, Arizona, where the prisoners must pedal to generate electricity for the telly to work. The thin ones are watching porn. The fat lags are not watching Oprah Winfrey. The sadists are powering the electric chair.
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio loves “Pedal Vision”. The inmates, housed in army surplus tents, need to pedal for one hour to generate 12 volts of power and watch one hour of telly. Says Arpaio:
“I started with the females because they seemed more receptive to the idea. The only exercise the females get right now is speed-walking around the tents yard and few are doing that. This gives them a reason to get moving and a way to burn up to 500 calories an hour. They won’t be charged a monthly gym fee but they will have to sign a contract.”
The contract states that you will pay a license fee or go to jail…
