We are the Maricopa County Sheriff's Posse, a group of volunteers. Basically we are "almost a Reserve Deputy." There's more information here:

The Maricopa County Attorney, Andrew Thomas, is a good conservative and very much supportive of these efforts, unlike the last guy, who often feuded with the Sheriff.
I'll be on this detail on Sunday. I suspect we will mostly supply extra eyes and ears for the sworn Deputies, rather than conducting actual arrests, but you never know. As always, I'm happy to do my part to assist county law enforcement. If you ever get the chance to be a law enforcement volunteer, I highly recommend it.
They're gonna need prisons the size of entire corporate complexes.
I suppose there's no time like the present to bring back internment camps.
That LA attorney must may get his nose cut off if he sticks it where it doesn't belong.
snicker...
Bush is on the other end of the spectrum.
Sheriff Joe is one terrific law man! Will give serious consideration to moving to Maricopa county when I retire.
Actually, all Arizona Sheriffs have a civilian auxiliary that is called the (X County) Sheriff's Posse.
And Sheriff Joe is using his Maricopa County Sheriff's Posse to enforce this law.
I think the headline writer swerved into a useful truth. There isn't any reason whatsover for civilians not to become involved in law enforcement as a form of public service. Isn't that exactly what the Minutemen are all about?
FWIW, I think this one is indeed a good choice of words.
Excuse me!! So now the Mexican Consulate is acting as a watchdog to argue who has jurisdiction between a local AMERICAN gvmnt and the Federal AMERICAN gvmnt???
Is there no end to the madness?
