Code of Ethics, or Dear City Commissioners

From Portland's Code of Ethics:

1.03.020 (2) Ensure public respect by avoiding even the appearance of impropriety.

Now is anyone in their right mind going to argue that our mayor has avoided "even the appearance of impropriety"? Give me a gigantic Mt. Everest break! The Portland Police Association already made this argument in even greater detail, saying the mayor broke four parts of the code.

So, dear commissioners, since the mayor clearly and undeniably broke the city's Code of Ethics, WHY DON'T YOU DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT?

It may even be in the mayor's best interest. If recent allegations are true, it may give him time to flee to Mexico and keep out of jail.
