WTF? a State Senator says he is above the law?
Edited on Sat Feb-26-11 06:46 PM by Monique1
There is is something wrong here folks or am I not reading correctly. I am older than most of you - but I have a problem when a State Senator says he can't be arrested because he carries that title.

1. It is part of the AZ Constitution as well as the constitutions of most states.
Can't be arrested for non-felonies while the legislature is in session. When the legislature is out of session they can be arrested then

2. so what this law says is
FU citizens, I am better than you. I'm sorry there needs to be a change NOW! Jan Brewer did the same when she was stopped for a DUI - she did the same damn thing. If it was you or I - guess where we would be and what we would be wearing and eating? No one is above the law period!
