I was stopped in traffic while these drunks got shut down by the santa monica police. After they dispersed there were smelly, dirty drunks all over the place. Next year hopefully they will be stopped before they leave venice and not be puking all over the streets of sm. As I sat on the deck of urth cafe an hour after the shut down, this shithead "dog" tried to sit with us and almost fell on us. He smelled like shit and puke. But hey he was really effing cool, because he was dressed funny and was drinking all over town. I think those kinds of people are called bums. Rock on losers. Bravo SM Police, shut that shit down next year too!!! Idiotarod is so much more fitting. I was stopped in traffic while these drunks got shut down by the santa monica police.

All of my sons and daughters were very respectful when they left their locations, the grounds were clean, and the people had smiles.

Those drunken jerks were obnoxious and, quite frankly, pathetic (how about kicking a poor dog, insulting passers-by and trashing backyards?) Maybe they thought they were cool, but they only came across as way-past-teenage prankster morons. Good thing the SMPD stopped them.

You might get the feeling that there is no real crime occuring in SM because the cops always have plenty of time to spend on shutting down fun events that decent people participate in. Although they like to pretend they are progressive, Santa Monica really is a very conservative city.
