"He is like a cross between Liberace and Hello Kitty. He is out of his gourd." - Bevan Dufty describing Han Shin (aka Purple Gloves) to the Bay Area Reporter.

So what's the latest with Purple Gloves? Well, Gavin Newsom's stalker Han Shin is now behind bars, after being arrested last night by the Union City cops. Not for the Gavin shenanigans, mind you -- but because yesterday morning, Shin had driven over to a possible ex's house in San Ramon, and when his ex wasn't there, stormed into the house, stolen several items, and then tried three times to run over one of the ex's roommates. (Hey, all of a sudden we're now wondering on the current status of the last mentally ill East Bay man who tried to run people over.)

Okay, we're a local news junkie Asian-American, and we're just going to say it -- we're a little embarrassed for our people from yesterday. Or, rather, we're going to strongly support investing more resources into Asian-American mental health advocacy and support groups.
