Being civil doesn't mean selling out, but running the city the way Kennedy, Primack, Porter, and Reilly have does. By the way, these people are not civil in their treatment of the homeless and political activists. Is it civil to wake up the homeless at night and give them tickets for sleeping? Is it civil to arrest people for distributing literature? Is it civil to shut down the distribution of medical marijuana through zoning? No! The lack of civility comes from those pointing their fingers.
