I am now officially a FAN of Kevin Johnson:

Sean Thompson, center, shown at an Occupy Sacramento protest in 2011. He was arrested multiple times during these actions at Cesar Chavez Plaza.
on early Thursday morning. The assailant has cuts, bruises and dried blood on his face — and sutures next to his left eye.
The mayor's office released a statement on Thursday morning, saying that Johnson "reacted in self-defense like most people do when attacked by an unknown object."
Thompson was at one time an activist with the Occupy Sacramento movement. He was arrested multiple times in 2011 during the Occupy Sacramento protests at Cesar Chavez Plaza (see photo, right).
The "pie-thrower" has engaged Johnson in the past during city council meetings. In 2011, Thompson spoke at council and turned his back on Johnson. Tensions were apparently high at this meeting, and three SPD officers moved toward him — but Johnson waived them off.<<<<

Maybe the little chit head will think twice before he assaults someone else.
