This also goes for any form of government. Marxism, Republic, Socialism, Capitalism, Demnocracy. No matter what, even if this was a Republic, we would still rot. I think that at least a Democracy is faster in its political system.
Overall, I think you and I are basically on the same page.

James Madison:
Remember, democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide.

US Constitution Aricle 4 Section 4: The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion... Not a Democracy

You're right, just having a republic isn't a magic shield against trouble. I'm simply trying to point out the inherent evil of Democracy. that doesnt mean I want to end voting, or strip anyone of anything. Think about it, in a Democracy 51% win, 49% lose. That's what we have today in our political system. They are actually right, they HAVE turned this into a Democracy, and it is unconstitutional.

You dan't have to shutup. I respect your position. That said, anything is a privilege. Anything can be taken away, even in a republic. Even though Rome was a Republic, look at all the corrupt politians that existed.
Ever seen Star Wars? How the Republic fell? It fell for a war in which the poeple gave up all their rights in either a Democracy or a Republic. Either way, thats how it will end.

You, my friend are the one who needs to do some research. Notice I quoted a historical figure. Just because you have been brought up to be ignorant, doesn't mean the rest of us will shut up about it. Furthermore there are no such thing aS 'minority rights" those are actually privileges, and can be taken away, as all privileges can be. Rights are rights, it has nothing to do with what group you are in. read up man, you need a lot of help

Great for you. Guess what? The Democrates promised that if they gained the majority in Congress, this war would end. Wow, they told the truth.
Nice speach. Why dont you and the majority DO SOMETHING about it then?

Thats why we have this little trick called minority rights idiot. You go ahead and destroy that which you live by.
If it was a tyranny of the majority we would be out of Iraq. Do some reaserch.

The United States is NOT a democracy DO NOT BELIEVE THE LIE. They repeat the same thing over and over (like hitler) until you believe it. We are a REPUBLIC. Thomas Jefferson called Democracy a"tyranny of the majority, where 51% can vote away the rights and properrty of the other 49%" the founding fathers DESPISED democracy. Democracy is Mob Rule with no respect for rights or property, sound familiar? DESTROY DEMOCRACY, support the REPUBLIC.
