Apartheid for the undocumented in Arizona
Brian Tierney reports on the latest outrage committed by racist Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio.

AS BARACK Obama was ordering the closure of the U.S. prison camp at Guantánamo Bay, Cuba, the sheriff of Arizona's largest county was busy opening a new Guantánamo inside the U.S. Joe Arpaio, the notoriously anti-immigrant sheriff of Maricopa County, the fourth-largest in the country, ordered undocumented prisoners from the county jail separated--and relegated to an outdoor "Tent City" prison camp.

Arpaio, who once paraded shackled inmates in pink underwear for the purpose of publicly humiliating them, forced 220 undocumented prisoners to march to his modern-day prison camp of canvas tents in the middle of the Arizona desert--under the watch of armed guards and a cordon of televisions cameras.
