New writs are now before the Court in a motion filed by Yakima Company today seeking payment by La Paz County.
Yakima is seeking an order requiring the County to immediately pay Yakima all funds not otherwise appropriated or necessary to fund essential government services. It would also force the County to take “all steps to raise revenue from any available source, and pay such funds to Yakima; and prepare a budget under which the County will pay Yakima all funds not necessary to fund essential County services.”
Yakima is also asking the Court to appoint a Special Master “to work with the parties and make recommendations to the Court on resolving any disputes that may arise.”
The provision to take “all steps” to raise money may be the most powerful provision in the motion. Yakima cites examples such as “issuing bonds, obtaining a credit facility, seeking funds from the State, and disposing of County property which is not essential for government services.” This would require the County to work with the Special Master to set aside ways to pay Yakima, perhaps by some of the means that have been discussed around the negotiating table.
The motion can be viewed in full here.

“Critical thinking, in its broadest sense has been described as “purposeful reflective judgment concerning what to believe or what to do”". “Critical” in this context does not mean “disapproval” or “negative.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_thinking)
I hope to read a novel opinion from a LPC resident, not someone else’s opinion ripped from the internet in a cartoon.
A mind is like a parachute Jerry. It works best when it is open. What difference does it make where someone gets their knowledge from? Are books better than the internet? And why would you call these links cartoons. They’re educational! I thought you were into that.
I choose to not say a whole lot more because you’ve already called me noisy and a screamer. IMHO you’re no different than the others that have shouted me down at Town Hall. (While accusing me of doing the same)
In a nutshell, democracy is the tyranny of the majority. It never lasts, and always ends badly.
Let’s say 51 percent of the people say all blond haired blue eyed people must pay more taxes. They even vote on it and pass a law. Does this make it right? In a democracy it would be. Or, let’s say 51 percent of the people vote in free food for anyone who doesn’t want to work. Good idea? No, but in a democracy, it’s a go. The problem with democracies is the people always find a way to vote in more for themselves and less for you. And if you are the minority, tough luck, your vote isn’t as important as the majority. This is why we were given a Republic, not a democracy, or a 50/50 version of the two.
“You’re no different than the others”
If Mr. Roth is challenged he goes into his attack mode. No one is immune, not even Jerry McGuire. Remember, the best defense is to go on the offense.
Right now Mr. Roth is testing Mr. McGuire to get a feel for how this will go. Once Mr. McGuire questions or criticizes one or two more of Mr. Roth’s ideas it will turn into name calling from Mr. Roth if history tells us anything.
Mr. Roth, Thank you for your answer. It is a bit selfish of me, as I really do enjoy hearing, and reading, other people’s ideas and understanding of things. I suppose it is a pleasure taken by most teachers as well.
Even in the democracy you describe, which is an idea or understanding shared by many, the minority still have choices – they have the choice to leave (or not to be there to begin with), and to not be victimized by those “democratic” actions. As more of the minority leave and congregate elsewhere, they become the majority in their new community.
And the community they leave behind gets smothered under the weight of their own self-serving ideology. Who is left to support the entitlement system after the “losers” have all left?
“Community” is defined as you wish – neighborhood, common interest group, people within a category, even a race, ethnicity or socioeconomic unique identifiers: (the Hispanic community, The law enforcement community, the Bouse community, a learning community, etc..)
Jerry, nice words and intent….. but you are trying to teach a mule to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the mule.
M and lapazarizona, it’s funny you call me a name caller when that’s all you have done.
lapazarizona and m, you guys think tyranny is ok, good luck with that!
Please M, do not insult the mule as the mule is a very knowlagble animal. Unlike the screamer we have here on this soapbox.
Any other form of a public forum would have not put up with the ranting and raving of this person–same screaming and poison ideas day after day–does’nt anyone else get tired of him?
Thought this forum was to try for new ideas for the Yakima problem–not to give a soapbox to this fellow to expound his rantings and ravings over and over.
Gracie, you’re the one ranting here. Why don’t you share some of your “knowlagble” with us on how to solve the Yakima problem.
Nobody is screaming here but you!
Don’t believe your name was mentioned–haveing a bad day mikey?
I’m “haveing” a GREAT Day gracie, how about you?
You don’t fool anyone, only yourself!
Michael- The more you attack my Sam the more I know the voters and resident’s of LaPaz County will like him
Good mom, I’ll keep it up! Sam needs all the help he can get! Maybe he’ll come around to understanding what his Oath of office means. I doubt it, he’s a lawyer! ####################
Sam’s Mom, Roth needs attention this is his sad, sad way of getting it. Everyone knows Sam is a sucessful and Roth is not. Your son is a target of kooks, ne’er-do-wells and oxygen thieves….. and of course convicted criminals. You may not know but Roth has been criminally convicted by a jury.
I back from the Cactus and I want all to come on over for some cold ones anytime. it is right next to the highway here and the peple are good folks and we all have best of times. M the Octitillo or VFW Sat or Sun is good for me. A few more cold ones aint a bad thing now is it for some real good La paz peple I do believe. lets have some real talk about what needin to be done here. Roth aint no patriot he aint not true sayer. Salome exposed him and hes exposed all over these parts and Quarszite exposed him and those peple in Yavapi county know all bout his ways I do beleive. parker peple also exposed his ways. He says he aint exposd but hes exposed and he knows it cause he wont show face in salome at all. no one sees him here. Salome dont put up with his ways and you all are breakin the rule by talkin to hisself, the rule is keep talkin but no with him cause hes like a little kid and he need to be in the attension i do beleive.
“What difference does it make where someone gets their knowledge from?” The difference is called credibility. It’s why you won’t find YouTube or the Desert Freedom Press cited as academic sources. Would you go see a doctor who learned how to perform surgery from YouTube?
Good,
I brought the lawyers out into the open.
RR, you obviously don’t know what credibility means. (Do YOU have any?) Desert Freedom Press is at least reporting news, compare that to the other media in this county. And we’re not performing surgery here, bad analogy!
M, yes Sam Vederman, your buddy, spent tens of thousands of La Paz County resident dollars to shut down free speech, only to get a misdemeanor charge, NOT the felony he wanted so he could completely stop my political activities because I make the criminal political scum of this county nervous. You and uncle Adolph must be proud. Jefferson, Washington and Adams are rolling in their graves!!! And all of those Americans who died defending our rights, did it for nothing.
Billy, I’m exposing myself right now!
And John, why would you delete advocating being a plumber or an electrician? Your censorship here doesn’t match your weak argument you emailed me yesterday, and it only proves you are biased here!
Desert Freedom Express? Two issues back, you and Jades issues had on the front page that the Nazi salute is O K here in the U S, especially in a Council meeting.
Give it up –there is no truth in the desert feedom express, only your ranting and raving.
Gracie, what do you have against freedom of press or expression? We tolerate you here! By the way, that article you mentioned (did you read it?) was a court case that the 9th Circuit Court Of Appeals ruled in favor of the activist who gave the salute, to a Nazi Police Chief, I believe. The problem here is you only like popular speech. Anything that makes you think differently than you do now is evil and needs to be banned. They tried that in Nazi Germany and it didn’t work out too good for the citizens, just like it will end badly here.
You’re right. This is not surgery. You are trying to save Quartzsite, the County, the State and the U.S. by citing sources from YouTube. I’m sure if YouTube was around for our founding fathers, they would have used it as a foundation for our Constitution.
DFP is an editorial, not news. Journalism is supposed to reflect unbiased fact when reporting the news. Credibility is not claiming to be news with a “rumor mill.” Credibility is not telling other people how to work when one hasn’t had a job in 20 years. It makes one wonder if you are receiving assistance from the government you blast. That would be a little hypocritical, don’t you think?
RR, I work, I just don’t do J.O.B.! I’m not sucking on the government tit, but I bet you are! Yes, I think it would be hypocritical. Tell us who you really are RR and then we can have an honest discussion. Hiding behind your handle, methinks you have something to hide!
(And for all you YouTube haters out there)
What won our independence so many years ago was the dissemination of information.
Benjamin Franklin, the Bill Gates of his day, was a printer, among many other things. If it wasn’t for pamphleteers and the writings like The Federalist and Anti-Federalist Papers, we would’ve never had America.
So when anyone ever criticizes content because of the medium used, they are being ignorant and arrogant. These types usually get elected to public office, so BEWARE!!!
roth aint no patriot and he aint no true sayer but he aint bad I do beleive. he is good fun for these parts. he dont want no trouble cuase he likes spreadin he words of widsdom.
Today we all took drive to desert Dash and then had cold ones at the desrt bar way out there in the desert. We do like it there and there peple are nice and aint no one thinkin bout problems out in those parts i do beleive. All just had beer and food and good time fun. America at its best.
I say go to desert bar when go get away from things. good pelpe there. were fixin on going to Silly als one day to see our quarszite buddys. M are you goin?
my bet is that roth aint bad when he aint taklin bout politics stuff. If he can keep his wfie she must see somthin bout hisself I do beleive. tonite I lift a cn of nnatural lite in honor of Roth.
Bottoms up!
Billy, you should not be drinking in honor to the quart (zsite) jester. Billy, I going to call your better half in the morning and tell her you drinkin too much and she will cut you off from lovin and drinkin cause your praising Roth…. shame on you Billy Wayne.
M, how is your plan to remove Dan Field going?
My friends and I still support Sam Vederman no matter what Mr. Roth says. Sam Vederman is doing a wonderful job and our support for him will continue. We never hear anything bad about him except from Mr. Roth.
Roth, you are toxic, all sane persons will not interact with you any further, Go find another forum to fill your ego and hate. I request, everyone, IGNORE all roth postings in future…….
M I disagree with you. We should keep Mr. Roth engaged. He is a Charles Beard follower.
M do you really know Billy Wayne? How can a man who can barely spell, and I mean no disrespect by that, even turn on a computer? Is he #####?
M, I am toxic to YOU. You say I am not kind, I am just not YOUR kind. And thank God for that! How is your plan to get rid of Dan Field going?
Putting on your best red fingernail polish and going to see Billy today?
lapazarizona, Get out of the house and talk to the citizens about Sam Vederman, he’s about as popular as Dan Field.
I am not a Charles Beard follower, however at least he was a thinking man, which is more than I can say for most of the La Paz County Plunderer Club Members.
I follow more this guy…

And yes, Billy is #######!
Mr. Roth, all my friends and I talk to people all day long and we live in Parker. I think we have good insight about how the people in Parker feel about Sam Vederman and we all think he is terrific.
Parker is close knit and everyone talks to everyone. Most of us know more than one person in law enforcement or someone that knows someone in law enforcement. The same for the courts and the lawyers.
We like Sam Vederman from town all the way upriver to the Bill Williams bridge. That is the majority of the voters in the county. My friends and I chuckle when we discuss what you write because some of the people you praise, who also live in Parker, think Sam Vederman is going a great job. Matthew Newman and King Clapperton to name a couple.
I can’t speak to the Quartzsite voters. That is your turf so to speak. I do know some people in Salome and Bouse and they really like Sam Vederman. Therefore, when you make your declarations about Sam Vederman they carry little weight with all due respect.
The talk here anyway is that Sam Vederman would be a great judge. Either way the citizens of La Paz County are fortunate to have such a dedicated and knowledgable County Attorney as Sam Vederman.
If you have such insight into this please share your thoughts about who should replace Sam Vederman.
Lucifer would do a better job than Sam Vederman.
Roth- I’m getting more and more complaints about you, and I’m inclined to agree with them. I don’t want to ban you from posting, but I’m being gradually persuaded that this place is more unwelcoming to others because you’re here. Last chance: please reign it in. Lucifer? Really? You must control yourself if you want access to post at all.
John,
You should’ve been with me in Salome today. I had a meeting with a man who was royally screwed by the “Justice System” of this county. He contacted me because of my articles in The Desert Freedom Press, and my posts here.
I’m willing to bet the complaints you get are from the Establishment. I know who most of these people are and they don’t like it when I tell the truth about them. Our County is in a severe crisis, and it’s not just the Yakima situation. That is just a symptom of the problem. There will never be prosperity and success in this county until there is a real justice system here. Why do you think a local jury awarded the maximum to Yakima? It’s because the citizens know it’s rotten to the core here and want it changed. The ones who fight me here and don’t want real positive change are in on the scam! (Sam Vederman hires out you know!)
Lapazarisona asked me who would be better than Sam Vederman and I told him the truth. By the way I also told what I typed in about Sam to this family that has had their life literally ruined by this county’s “justice system” and they agreed with me.
Glen Buckaloo (Sp??) sent a man to prison for a murder he [SAYS he]* did not commit. When confronted with the facts, he didn’t want to deal with it. He didn’t care! An innocent man was completely railroaded and nobody cared! Is this the kind of county you want to live in? Do you have kids? (yet) How would you feel if your kid got railroaded?
I’m willing to bet I have more support from the real people, not the county government hacks on this site, than they do of the citizens. Really, why do they have to hide behind their handles if they are so proud of their accomplishments here? (and then call you when their feelings get hurt.) How about the feelings of the citizens that get railroaded? Isn’t that just as, if not MORE important, than what an elected or non-elected government official feels? They are PUBLIC SERVANTS aren’t they, or are they our masters like they think they are?
This is not the time to be stifling speech. You let them say and do anything but when I give it right back at them, they cry!
*John’s edit.
Roth- I have no issue with the message; it’s your delivery that’s the problem. If you stayed calm, got your point across constructively, and avoided being derogatory; you’d have had zero objections from me. But I’m constantly having to moderate you, for everything from insults to libel.
Even in your last post, your comments about the innocence of a man convicted of murder tell the story from his side only, as though it were fact, ignoring the findings of the justice system including, presumably, a judge or jury, and smearing the name of the Deputy County Attorney. A more sensible person would say, “He maintains his innocence.” You say, “An innocent person was completely railroaded…”
I won’t stand for these smears, libelous comments and insults. Your participation is welcome otherwise, but I’m beginning to doubt that you know when you’re breaking these rules at all. One last chance.
