Police response wasn't just to the spray-painted car and house, but of most concern was the associated threat of further violence to the Mayor. Obviously, if no police action were taken, threats of violence against public officials could have a chilling effect on democratic participation.

this would NOT be the police response if this was anyone other than the mayor....
