Local Law Enforcement Fundraiser May 1-5

Sedona AZ – The following is a letter to the SedonaEye.com editor:

Friends:

During this difficult time, crime did not cease. In fact, domestic violence, rage and drug use have been increasing in our community. Our brave local police officers and sheriff’s deputies have been walking into dangerous situations to keep the rest of us safe; let’s thank them for their bravery during this crisis. Come out and help us do just that; we appreciate your participation:

McDonald’s franchisees in Sedona, Camp Verde and Cottonwood have offered a limited-menu “thank you” breakfast (or lunch) to our law enforcement officers at no cost. We are partnering with McDonalds in all three Verde Valley McDonalds locations to raise enough money between now and Monday afternoon, May 4, to match McDonald’s kind “thank you” meals and treat our officers to a second breakfast (or lunch) specifically on “Two-Fer Tuesday”, May 5th.

The officers can keep the second meal (our treat) for dinner -or- use the second meal to treat a stressed spouse, please a restless child, or encourage an unemployed friend who needs some comfort.

We will be collecting cash donations at these locations starting tomorrow:

Friday, May 1, from 8 AM to 5:30 PM at Cleaner Quicker Car Wash, 1515 West State Road 89 A, Sedona -and- 10 AM to 4 PM, Camp Verde Marshal’s office, 646 South 1st Street, Camp Verde.

Saturday, May 2: from 8 AM to 5:30 PM at Cleaner, Quicker Car Wash, 1515 West State Road 89 A, Sedona -and- 10 AM to 4 PM, Cottonwood Police Station, 199 South 6th Street, Cottonwood

Monday, May 4th: from 8 AM to 5:30 PM, Cleaner, Quicker Car Wash, 1515 West State Road 89 A, Sedona

Since Camp Verde and Cottonwood locations are a farther drive, come to either of those locations and get treats! See pictures (cool bumper stickers for your car or your home window -or- a Trump “acquitted” pen). More treats are being considered. All treats will be offered while supplies last.

Come out and join the fun and BE the miracle!

Please feel free to share and post. See you Friday, Saturday and Monday to honor law enforcement.

    Sickened by the Democrats like Klobuchar who keeps lying and lying and is proof that the Democrats can’t abide by the rule of law. She wants the state department job promised under Biden. Go back to your mole hole. Democrats can’t run the country well now and they didn’t in the past and they won’t in the future. Looks like that Senator Sasse of Nebraska has common sense. This is law vs polls.

  2. Don Jasper says:

    Editors I hit submit before ending comment please add this.

    You people who defund police in your comments and you know who you are around here are unworthy of being in charge of any job.

  3. Mike Schroeder says:

    Let’s Remember – that President Trump DID NOT ban Muslims from entering the country. VP Biden starts out his commercial with a LIE. So what else is new.

    There are 57 primary Muslim countries – and the ones that were banned did not have the infrastructure for us to determine who these people were that wanted to come into our country.

    It was very few of the 57 countries.

    So starting your campaign with a lie does speak well for the former VP.

    Please share

    THIS NEEDS TO BE SEEN BY EVERYONE!

    Subject: BIDEN’S Latest TV AD

    This clip is being promoted in heavy areas of Muslim populations.

    You won’t see it on major networks.

    The attached video is Biden’s Muslim Commercial. If this doesn’t concern and chill you to the bones! This is scary stuff.. Please pass this on to every true American that you know and don’t even think about not voting. We need to mobilize and make sure this election is not stolen. This is a serious concern.

    Lmao at Dem commercial saying Biden gave a damn about the poor and costs of prescriptions. He didn’t do squat in 46 years to lower prices or fix the broken health care system. Guess he can go live in Switzerland with his son and wife if the country goes communist with all his Ukrainian millions and back room deals with China and Russia. He hasn’t been to Scranton or Ohio unless it was an election year and nobody remembers him there anyway. Grow up Arizonans, appreciate the beautiful and diverse state of goodness we live in. #Save America #NOJOE #ACB4America #SaveArizona #MomsforJustice #JusticeForAmy

  5. America Soldiers are the Best says:

    Last night, our Country’s brave warriors rescued an American hostage in Nigeria. Our Nation salutes the courageous soldiers behind the daring nighttime rescue operation and celebrates the safe return of yet another American citizen! Thank you President Trump and Secretary of State Pompeo for believing we could do it when the former administration wouldn’t even try. (Remember how they let Kayleigh in Phoenix die and be tortured?)

  6. ADOT License Renewal Scam Alert says:

    SCAM ALERT If you got a text telling you to update your AZ driver license do not open or click. It isn’t from MVD! If you clicked on the alert, notify your local law enforcement agency or call AZ DOT to report it.

  7. Carol, Uptown Sedona says:

    DHS Secretary Mayorkas told Congress yesterday that the “challenge” at the border was due to the Trump administration’s dismantlement of the asylum system. (Secretary Mayorkas has steadfastly refused to call the situation a crisis or emergency, despite receiving substantial criticism.)

    This narrative is plainly untrue. It’s a crisis made by the Biden administration.

    Second, President Biden said we would all have checks by this past weekend. Any of you know someone who even got one? Nobody in this town seems to or my relatives towns or my friends towns. That’s a lot of states not getting them.

    Why can’t the Biden administration the dissemination of the vaccine to the states or handle the border crisis, and the media has self destructed into political elitists for socialism which is why they don’t demand that to cut the feed to press conferences is anti American and to allow Biden and Harris and their minions to pull out the magic bunny (Trump administration) to distract a TV and social media uneducated population is in a word wrong.

    Gila Bend and Miami Beach are under states of emergency. Get it together Biden. These towns are being overrun by outsiders who don’t obey our laws. PERIOD. Gila Bend lawbreakers are headed this way.

    Department of Justice statistics show that between fiscal years 2009 to 2016, during the Obama administration, its immigration judges granted asylum to an average of 8,958 aliens a year (a 4 yr total of 71,660 aliens).

    On the other hand, the Trump administration granted asylum to approximately 14,249 aliens a year between fiscal years 2017 to 2020, totaling 56,996 grants of asylum in just half the time. They weren’t against anyone and pro legal borders. We had peace and civility at the border under Trump. We have chaos and crap on our desert floor and more COVID disease under Biden.

    The Trump administration was superior at organizing government and getting the most out of its employees and its call to service. Its ability to organize and manage most agencies like a well oiled machine from the top down proved effective in getting vaccines in a never we before known timeline! That timeline will save MILLIONS globally. Everyone should give appreciation and thanks for the profound gift of life from the Trump administration whether you voted for it or not. Biden would still be influenced by the naysayers and we would be years into a vaccine.

    I’m done. Get on with your denials, Sedonaites. We love you Sedona and Yavapai police in this home.

  8. Second Amendment says:

    “Laws that forbid the carrying of arms … disarm only those who are neither inclined nor determined to commit crimes… Such laws make things worse for the assaulted and better for the assailants; they serve rather to encourage than to prevent homicides, for an unarmed man may be attacked with greater confidence than an armed man.” —Cesare Beccaria

  9. Today in 1995 says:

    Do you remember that on this day in 1995, 168 innocent men, women and children died in the Oklahoma City Murro Building? You should. If you don’t, learn what you should know. Stamp out hate.

    Amazon Prime. Yesterday”Amazon” called me, asking me to renew my subscription. (Automated) Giving me the opportunity to press 1 2 or 3, to renew, or unsubscribe or whatever it was. The price was right at $119 per year so I thought how easy that would be, but Amazon doesn’t do but that way. (That I know of) Anyway I took to long to decide and soon the call ended. Thank goodness I was right to BeWare. I checked my account on line and it’s not due for another 6 mos.

    So BeWare everyone. Somebody is out there after your Amazon prime account. Don’t do it.

  11. Tonya Carroll says:

    Our local law enforcement is the best and we appreciate them. We shouldn’t expect them to
    handle more then keeping the peace. We have peace here because goodness rules our homes and streets and we don’t abide evil or incivility there. We have less than 4 thousand people here full time and our police deal with to many tourists and to much crime and to much property damage from out of towners.

  12. Bob L. Jackson says:

    Rep. John Katko, ranking member of the House Homeland Security Committee, said during a trip to the southern border that U.S. Border Patrol has apprehended individuals who were on the terrorist watchlist. “Individuals that they have on the watchlist for terrorism are now starting to exploit the southern border.”

    Northern Arizona, you’ve planned for this kind of visitor? You voted for Biden and open borders and how this rolls. Kind of sucks Arizona’s front line welcome mat for gangs and terrorists or are you lying in the don’t wanna see, don’t wanna tell, don’t wanna know. Seriously people?

  13. Aryanna Addams, Flagstaff says:

    New report said former Democrat California Senator Barbara Boxer was assaulted and robbed in Oakland on Monday afternoon. According to a statement on her Twitter account, Boxer was walking in Jack London Square when she was pushed from behind and robbed of her cell phone. The attacker then jumped into a waiting car. Boxer was not seriously injured. There is a reward of up to $2,000 for any information that might lead to an arrest in the case.

    Wayne Dupree noted in his webcast today that her area had officially voted last week to defund its police by $18 million. Good job, Democrats and complacent voters who allow this. Maybe that @2K reward will go to the police who find your phone? No, didn’t think that might happen, but why not let Barbara find it on her own. After all that’s the kind of personal touch policing she advocates.

  14. F. G. Emerson says:

    NBC just broke away from the President’s live address to the nation about the two suicide attacks at Kabul airport today that killed a dozen and injured 15 of American military. Over 60 Afghani women and children and men were killed and many more injured. The President lied to us and blamed it on Trump. WTF?!?!?!! He never did what Trump wanted done since day one of his election!!! Obama said don’t ever underestimate Joe’s ability to F it up. Thank you former President Obama..Nailed it. This is President Biden FU and his administration failure.

  15. Paul, west Sedona says:

    Why did you post your comment about today under here but here goes my reply —- After President was scooted off, the press secretary came back out to answer the questions he couldn’t manage including fixing what he said before he walked off and how he said it. CNN has to make him look better and themselves look like journalists LMAO. Anybody say Cuomo?

  16. Nancy Watson says:

    “Why did you post your comment about today under here. . .” @Paul, west Sedona.

    Good question. Better yet, why no new Sedona Eye headline articles for OVER one year? Is it true? If SE is dead why no announcement? Funeral??

    Editor/Publisher??????

    (SedonaEye.com editor: Quite a few newer articles have been published in recent weeks and we welcome our readers post pandemic.)

  17. Support Sedona police says:

    Found this online and here’s part of it. . .

    A recent survey found there has been a 45% increase in the retirement rate and a nearly 20% increase in resignations from officers in 2020-2021 compared to the previous year, according to the Police Executive Research Forum. 
    Larger cities’ police departments have also struggled with staffing amid the anti-police sentiment and their local leaders supporting the defund the police movement last summer. But liberal leaders, like in Seattle, have recently reversed course and called for departments to be beefed up. 
    “As a city, we cannot continue on this current trajectory of losing police officers,” Mayor Jenny Durkan said during a press conference in July. “Over the past 17 months, the Seattle Police Department has lost 250 police officers, which is the equivalent of over 300,000 service hours. We’re on path to losing 300 police officers.”
