Tamales for peace

Councilman Ed Reyes and Police Chief Bill Bratton are participating in a "Tamales for Peace" event with organizers of tomorrow's May Day parade as all parties involved pledge there will not be a repeat of last year's clash with police.
The LAPD has been working furiously to make sure officers know the limits of what they need to do in terms of crowd control and it will be closely monitored by Bratton, the Police Commission, Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa, City Council members and, well, the world, as television is expected to cover most of it in the afternoon.
Assembly Speaker Fabian Nunez announced he will be joining the demonstrators at MacArthur Park tomorrow and march with them to City Hall.
