A Citizens Arrest

A San Diego City Council candidate was arrested Thursday afternoon after he was seen urinating in a cup and masturbating in public...

Police Chief William Lansdowne said Hartley's arrest was a citizens arrest, and that a sex crimes officer interviewed him.

Wait a minute...I thought even writing about conducting a citizens arrest was illegal and could land you in the slammer big time. You're telling me citizens can actually perform them?

Oh, wait, the guy wasn't in power yet. Different set of rules. Never mind.

Interesting platform he's running on, though--abusing himself instead of the taxpayers. Maybe that qualifies him as the lesser of two evils, and it certainly does sound like anyone voting for him would have to hold their nose...

Sounds like the pragmatic, time-honored and recommended course. I'm convinced.
