Are there free Slurpies? I might consider going if that was the case.

There, fixed that for ya.
Apparently it's only assault if it's someone rich and well-known. If Ford actually follows through on this and presses charges it's just further proof how venal and small he is. The bottom line is she missed, so nothing really happened. If he got hit in the face and was hurt, I'd say, sure, that's assault. But getting someone slightly wet isn't. What a prick.How does throwing a drink at someone's feet (and missing them) lead to assault charges? Ridiculous.

It's not at all funny, or even very good protesting PR, to assault someone with thrown liquid. That said:
...is absurd. Again, words have actual meanings, and in this case legal meaning -- throwing something at a particular overweight drug addict because you disagree with that specific individual's actions is not a "hate crime". Seriously. I very much doubt he was assaulted because he's overweight or an addict -- he was assaulted because he's the mayor and has apparently engaged in illegal activity that brings disrepute to the office and the city. That's assault, but it's not a hate crime. You don't get to make up the definition of legal terms.
Possibly. As discussed at length earlier, there are surprisingly few mechanisms to remove a sitting mayor. But significant jail time would be one.
Sarcasm isn't always obvious when engaging in online discourse so I'll just ask... are you being sarcastic or have you written this as serious comment. If it's the latter, may I ask you to expand on your statement, which seems to suggest that evidence that is potentially motive for murder would not be presented in court?
Excellent points, MetroMan.
Wouldn't using his home phone number contravene office expense laws?
Unless the city pays his home phone bill, that means it is an illegal out of pocket expense.
