Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

I'm so jealous of a State that even tries to keep their cops on a leash.
You just know the piggy is so pissed that he got in trouble for "doing his job," as he sees it. I'm glad the AG is putting some fear into the arm of government whose job it is to restrict people's freedom.
Fuckin' scumbag:
Yeah it’s kinda refreshing.
There is no such place in Arizona.
Apache County
Cochise County
Coconino County
Gila County
Graham County
Greenlee County
La Paz County
Maricopa County
Mohave County
Navajo County
Pima County
Pinal County
Santa Cruz County
Yavapai County
Yuma County
Mesa is a city in AZ. And cities don't have Sheriffs. Mesa County is Colorado.
So where is your "quote" from? Because it's got problems.
Yeah, I think the article wrote it wrong.
I pulled it from there, as you can see by clicking the link.
Edit:
Indeed it is there...
That makes the whole article suspect for me... Anyone writing news for their locale, will know at the very least what fucking counties belong to their state... For something like that to make it through the author and the copy editor is wild.
Ah... There it is... It's probably audio fed to an LLM... This whole transcript is likely an AI hallucination.
Edit: and this is from PBS? Come on... Don't give the right even more reason to cancel you. FFS.
The audio from the body cam is there to hear, and it didn't indicate who was talking in the moment. But that is indeed what he said.
Agreed that it is disappointing.
The audio in article doesn't state
Only the "Transcript" does. So no... you can't say that's what he said. The transcript itself shows the indication of who's talking and stating that the officer is from Arizona is in the indicator... not the actual spoken words...
This is literally PBS feeding their shit through an LLM and not checking the results.
You've misunderstood.
The audio says who it is (but not in the moment), and the AI transcript got it wrong. Feel free to listen to the audio to confirm.
