Dog poop to you. Caught in the act.

[Al Bumin]

SAN MARINO, Calif. – The doo-doo has gotten too deep for the mayor of a wealthy Los Angeles suburb who flung dog poop onto a political opponent's property.

The Pasadena Star-News reports San Marino Mayor Dennis Kneier (kuh-NEER') resigned Tuesday after outcry from residents who say he smeared their image.

Kneier remains on the City Council. Councilman Eugene Sun will serve as mayor.

Kneier found the bag of dog waste June 7 and tossed it onto the walkway of political opponent Philip Lao.

Lao recognized the mayor on surveillance video and called police. Video of the incident went viral.

In his resignation letter, Kneier says his actions were inconsiderate and disrespectful and he's stepping down because the event continues to be embarrassing to him and to the city.

The mayor resigned over a little bit of shit?

Oh, right.

San Marino, California. Not Toronto, Cracktario.

Bottom line think twice about doing anything suspicious these days as there are cameras everywhere.

And that wise rule appears on which page in the Rob Ford guide book to politics?

The one he wrote while he was in rehab - which he is soon to be done with and back to work.

Correct, I stopped peeing on lane ways years ago.

What was he thinking?

Wait, I forgot he is a politician.
