Sunil, you missed the boat again.

The United States is governed by a representative form of government (to
be precise, a constitutional republic), not a democracy.

The counsel members represented their constituency -- not themselves and
not their own "standards."

You can ask them if you like -- but the *overwhelming* sentiment that
they received was for public modesty and upholding the ordinance.

Funny how a very vocal minority can make it appear completely opposite.
