Rospy replaces the signal handler for SIGINT. A running loop in your
main thread will no longer be interrupted with a KeyboardInterrupt.
Instead you should check rospy.is_shutdown() as a condition of your
loop.

Does your joystick keep sending messages when its values aren't
changing? I know that some will stop sending messages in this case.
Ditto to Blaise and James: seeing some code would be helpful as well
as more details on what you're trying to do.
