WiltonKnight: As we were talking - bringing problems purposely caused by liberals, right to their doorstep.

This is not even CLOSE to what I want - but nevertheless it's tasty all around. ... Then the Council man called cops and held the guy down until officers got there.

LOL they get all "law AND ORDER" all of a sudden.


There's WiltonKnight once again gleeful that someone he perceives as a 'liberal' was attacked, only sorry he wasn't actually hurt or killed.

I don't know anything about Santa Monica politics but I do know how to Google and, gee, Phil Brock ran on a law and order platform.

From his campaign website: "I Am Committed to Reducing Crime and Restoring Public Safety. Between the cacophony of major crime, burglaries, assaults, and robberies the dream of Santa Monica has been lost. We must have city council members with backbone, who are firmly committed to restoring the soul and safety of our city. I'm fed up! I hope you are as well. It's time to make a change."

And, from your linked article, the suspect, Sawyer Walden Allee, 20, was ripping signs off storefronts and dropping them to the sidewalk when Brock asked Allee not to litter. The attack, from what is shown on the video, was Allee shouting obscenities and yelling and screaming incoherently at Brock before trying to take his hat several times, finally grabbing it off his head. Allee then through soda on Brock and his girlfriend and struck Brock with the soda can.

Allee is currently being held on a 5150 hold and was booked on charges of battery and grand theft. The article doesn't mention what was stolen. Allee had been arrested twice before in the past few weeks on felony charges but the article doesn't list the crimes he was charged with previously.

'5150 is the number of the section of the Welfare and Institutions Code, which allows an adult who is experiencing a mental health crisis to be involuntarily detained for a 72-hour psychiatric hospitalization when evaluated to be a danger to others, or to himself or herself, or gravely disabled,' according to the Orange County Health Care Agency.

Brock said he hopes Allee gets the mental health treatment he needs through the judicial system.

The Downtown Santa Monica Inc. board recently voted to move forward with the initiative that will see a private security company patrolling the Third Street Promenade and surrounding area.

So, not the bloody mess you seem to continually hope for and maybe albaby1 can explain the "grand theft" charge or why he was free after two felony charges in less than a month but I'll leave you with a little John Prine, a lyric I often associate with your posts:

Unhappy, unhappy
You have no complaint
You are what your are and you ain't what you ain't
So listen up buster, and listen up good
Stop wishing for bad luck and knocking on wood
