Why I am not for spreading “Democracy”
February 17, 2009 – 8:19 pmFrom a Mac user forum:
* Democracy: two wolves and a sheep voting on what’s for lunch
* Liberty: a well armed sheep expressing his rights.
* Anarchy: a planet full of well-armed sheep who all claim to be expressing their ‘rights’.
Humorous, but to the point. Majority rule, without safeguards for minority rights, is tyranny. (Think Alabama, ca. 1955.)

Two edges to that minority rights sword though. That is the stance of militant abortion supporters, unnatural marriage and “undocumented” invaders apologists.
I’d rather fight those battles than be stampeded in to Communism by manipulated ignorant sheople.
There is a REASON the founders thought that property should be a requirement for voting. More on that later.
