If you think Sheriff Joe's tent city would be a bad place to have to spend some time, just think how bad it would have been to get arrested in Wickenburg back in the late 1800's. They didn't have a jail so they chained them to a tree as depicted in this public sculpture.

I bet that wasn't much fun for them under the hot sun.

Oh no!
Chained to a tree sounds dreadful!
Oh my, that would be very dreadful.
I guess the idea is "Don't be wicked in Wickenburg!" Ouch.
Thanks for your nice comment today. And yes, some of those girl riders can't be more than 11-12 years of age. But they are good.
That's awfully close to where they might hang the noose!
That might well be worse than being in a jail cell. Out in the elements, having freedom staring you right in the face and not being able to touch it.
I guess it's better than the hanging tree.
Doesn't look like a comfy place to sleep.
Sounds like a human rights violation!
