San Marino Mayor Resigns After Video Captures Him Throwing Dog Waste In Neighbor’s Yard

The mayor of San Marino has stepped down after he was captured on surveillance video tossing a bag of dog waste onto his neighbor’s walkway earlier this month.

Dennis Kneier announced his immediate resignation Tuesday in a letter to the city and the City Council.

“As is well known, early in the evening of Saturday, June 7, I had a lapse of judgment and discarded dog waste on a neighbor’s walkway,” Kneier wrote. “It was insensitive, disrespectful and wrong. I have apologized to my neighbor for my action, and I will pay a fine for littering. I can understand why this matter has some questioning my ability to lead the council. I want to assure you that something like this will not happen again.”

Philip Lao, Kneier’s neighbor, has said that the two men have been embroiled in a feud since 2008 because he disagrees with some of the mayor’s proposals.

Vice Mayor Eugene Sun will assume mayoral responsibilities through June 27, when the council will select a new mayor and vice mayor.

Kneier will remain a councilman until his term ends in November 2015.

What is "dog waste?"

I've heard of a "waste basket" and that a "mind is a terrible thing to waste," but I don't know what "dog waste" is. Can someone help me out???

It's a euphemism for "mayor's brains".

Just out of curiosity - was this perhaps a dim-bulb-crat?

Acknowledge, of course, that any politician by definition is not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer - else they would have chosen a more honorable profession.

He left his office over that? He must be an old style republican or rino. I can’t see a democrat getting that broken up about dog crap. There must have been something else about to drop.

It's what obama was before he became human waste.

Now, he has withered away to just a piece of it.
