As in so much of society today, Gooberville suffered a breakdown in civil discourse. The Gooberville City Council meetings grew longer in length as citizen and politicians took to calling each other doodyheads and such things, getting into personal, vindictive arguments, rather than attempting to debate issues in a civil manner.
The Mayor asked the City Attorney to draft an ordinance to force people to behave in a civil manner. The City Attorney said, "Let me think about this. I will let you know soon."
As they entered Gooberville City Hall the night of the next Council meeting, the Mayor told the Attorney that he had not heard from the Attorney as promised. "Ah, I think you will find tonight that the matter will be resolved without need for a new ordinance."
