Give the man credit. He managed a turn-around in a difficult situation (which you neglect to fully describe, e.g. illegal immigration run-amok, budget issues, rampant gang activity, etc.) and achieve the kinds of results he was hired to achieve. He got RESULTS. Never mind his ego. Maybe he can read the tea leaves and knows it is time for someone else with a different set of skills and energy to tackle the future set of problems. As Dirty Harry used to say “A man’s got to know his limitations!” and sounds like he is smart that way also. In a society that rewards style over substance, at least LA got substance for it’s money. Be thankful for that. Got any complaints, take them up with the Ca legislature.
