Democracy is survival of the majority and subjugation of the minority. It is IMPOSED just as mobs impose their will on the minority. It is a form of government that essentially allows the people to ignore other people's rights to life, property and liberty with a majority vote.
Democracy is MOB RULE. It is a NATURALLY occurring form of government (informal) along the lines of might (majority) makes right. It is where 51% of the population can control or ignore the rights of the other 49%.
A prime example of democracy in action was the French Revolution. "Off with her head!" (Mob chant).
We live in a Republic under rule of Constitutional Law. This protects EVERYONE from the whims of the majority.
