“This isn’t a right. This isn’t the right to bear arms. This isn’t free speech. This is a privilege, and I would say under those circumstances, would society’s best judgment be to let the person just drive away≠ I would argue no.” — Sen. Jim Waring, R-7, commenting on a DUI bill that would allow police officers to suspend a driver’s license immediately after a vehicle accident in which alcohol may have been a factor.
“It’s a pretty incredible feat, really, for something we started four weeks ago.” — Rep. Jerry Weiers, R-12, commenting on a holiday donation drive in Phoenix that collected hundreds of toys, thousands of dollars in gift cards and more than 1,400 boxes of food to help more than 800 families of troops overseas.
“Whether or not it reaches a legal threshold has nothing to do with whether their concerns are valid. I think that’s why people hate attorneys — because what’s right and wrong isn’t always what’s legal.” Rep. Kyrsten Sinema, D-15, on the employer sanctions battle being waged in the courts.
“We have had several cases where we had to inform large companies of what they lost, in one case a big spool of copper.” Sgt. Richard Carpenter, a Tucson police detective, commenting on the scrap-metal thefts occurring across the state.
