Amos,

PLEASE read my posting in full or in context:

Jack stated:
""Maybe I don't understand democracy?

The Government of san Francisco is elected by the people. The government makes the laws. If the majority of the people there don't like the laws the government makes they can vote them out.

There certainly seems to be a "will of the people" thing going on here, or else that law would not exist.."
"On the other hand. If the government of San Franciso want to ban it and the people support it by keeping them in power, that's their choice. "

I THEN Posted my comment. As I said, perhaps I was being too subtle.

Let me 'splain: He seemed to imply that since the elected representatives had voted in the law, it had the apprtoval of the citizens. I then gave an example that would lead one to think, knowing the general opinion of Bush here, that HIS premise was false.

Unnerstand?
