If that's what the majority wants, then what's wrong with it?

The fact that "the majority" has no influence on what's right; and that
our constitutional principles are founded on limiting the tyranny of the
majority. That is a big reason why the United States is a republic, not
a democracy.

That's also true. So why is it that you support the idea that a minority
of one can imprison or kill any citizen (or take away any lesser
Constitutional rights) on a whim?


I'm not the one who's ignorant.

Uh huh... and Nixon kept repeating "I am not a crook!"
