What's wrong with choosing rights democratically?

[bluGill]

Minority rights.

[qweqwweqwe-90i]

You either believe in a democracy or you don’t. Minority rights have been pretty well protected through democratic decisions.

Minority rights are well-protected in America as a constitutional republic.

An actual direct democracy, like Switzerland, isn't as great as protecting minority rights. There's plenty of examples of democracies trampling minority rights, and there is a legitimate fear of tyrannical majority in most democracies.

America is quite unique in its system and how well it protects rights.

Sometimes, but not all times. It depends on what minority

[qweqwweqwe-90i]

I disagree, but you are entitled to your opinion. And also to try and change the situation democratically.
