DesertBull Report post Posted March 3, 2012 Saw this on another site and thought it was interesting. All monies were "donated" on December 16th. Bold names are affiliated with AZSWF and/or AZSFWC The AZ Secretary of State keeps records on all political contributions. This is from the Jerry Weiers 2012 political committee. The same Jerry Weiers who sponsored HB2072. These contributions totaling over $6000 were all made on December 16, 2011. 3 weeks before this emergency bill was created/made public. Coincidence? Maybe some of these names look familiar?

DesertBull Report post Posted March 3, 2012 I'm trying to figure out the significance of the $424 sum. Is that the max you can give? Would $425 trigger some kind of audit or other investigation? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snapshot Report post Posted March 3, 2012 $424 is a weird amount. But since they have been trying to stay off the radar anyway, doesn't surprise me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

muskrat Report post Posted March 3, 2012 I wondered if a larger lump sum contribution was divided up equally amongst several people... it is odd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DesertBull Report post Posted March 3, 2012 I wondered if a larger lump sum contribution was divided up equally amongst several people... it is odd Good point. Maybe one of the money guys funded the whole thing but they had to split it up into smaller amounts because of campaign finance laws. Either way.....a guy got paid and a bill gets sponsored and slipped in under the radar a few weeks later. if that is true, and I'm not saying it is, then someone is breakin da law. Sounds like something that John Junker with the Fiesta Bowl would do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EBB Report post Posted March 5, 2012 Guys, I fear for my life posting this, but, here goes. Weiers may not have thought this one through very well. Over the years he has been a standup Representative for the sportsmen of Arizona. He was our voice in all things outdoors. So we maybe don't agree with one thing he does. There is no need to be vitriolic about it. You let him know you don't agree, and convince him he is wrong with logical arguments. He may or may not see the light but that doesn't make him the enemy on all things. The people in his district could have just as easily sent us an anti hunter and gun control advocate! We are still a Representative Republic and he was elected to represent. If you don't think he is, then let everyone know to contact him about it. The system really can work.

.270 Report post Posted March 5, 2012 He crossed the line. The line you don't cross and expect to come back. He knew what he was doing. He tried a sorry trick because some sorry people bought and paid for him. He deserves no quarter. His smarmy response to the backlash pretty much sums up his attitude toward "us".

WHose not to say there wasn't anymore cash payout under the table. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
