Felons out, dissenters in! Welcome to Democracy!
You will search the Constitution in vain for any mention of “democracy.” Our country’s founders feared democracy and took pains to protect us from it.
These days we hear the word “democracy” almost as often as we hear “iconic.” It is a vast display of hypocrisy, hopefully confined to this planet and not infecting the rest of the universe. We apply the term to jailing anyone who disagrees with the government and silencing free speech. That’s “democracy.”
And we are running out of chances to save ourselves from it.
