We need to understand and never forget what a place controlled by a majority brings... Things like inquisition..... slavery.... things that control and over run individuals... it simply cannot happen... that is why America is a representative republic.... not a democracy. .

People can't seem to understand understand that a country can have more than one form of government at any one time. There are no pure monarchies or republics or democracies. They are all hybrids.
The US is a Federal Constitutional Democratic Republic. Canada is a Federal Parlimatary Constitutional Monarchy. The UK is a Unitary Parliamentary Constitutional Monarchy.
But leave it up to a conservative to fuck up definitions. I mean it makes sense then being anti-education and suffering from black and white thinking about other mental issues.
Also none of the violence like slavery, Nazism and the inquisition was done in the name of democracy. It was done in the name of xenophobia, racism and theocracy. All groups that are on the right. When someone claims to be right one automatically knows they are wrong.
And as history has shown right wing governments will continue to rise but soon thereafter will ALWAYS fall.
