Sheriff Joe Watch: the Sheriff and the Loose Cannon

Since Joe Arpaio was elected Sheriff for the first time in 1992, I remember several stories of Sheriff's guards and deputies behaving badly. If you want a full list, check out the Wikipedia page. What I don't remember is Joe ever being the slightest bit apologetic about any of the various deaths, beatings, beatings to death, etc that occurred as the result of the actions of the men on his watch. However, when honorary Sheriff's deputy Shaquille O’Neal uses some naughty words (slightly NSFW, but the bad words are bleeped) in an impromptu rap in New York City, now, apparently, Sheriff Joe has finally found a reason to discipline someone. He want's O'Neal's badge(s) back.

No word yet on whether O'Neal actually needs any stinkin' badges. And if you really want to know what those words that got bleeped out of Shaq's rap were, the recently departed George Carlin may be able to clear that up for you. (Yeah, that link is NSFW. It's called "7 words you cant' say on television" for a reason).
