From Republic to Tyrannical Democracy?
By Carole Hornsby Haynes

America is in a crisis.  From a constitutional republic and limited government founded on Jewish and Christian principles, America has now disintegrated into a state of chaos, violence, murder, corruption, indebtedness, and internal division that threatens to rip the nation asunder.  Where does the blame lie?

A  paper by the progressive Carnegie Endowment for International Peace asserts that the “world’s oldest democracy” is “in swift decline.”  The authors contend that “political violence and spontaneous hate crimes that harm people” are committed mostly by those on the right, whereas the vast majority of Black Lives Matter protests have been “peaceful,” except for a few that resulted in the most costly insurance payouts in modern history.

Al Jazeera, the Qatar media network, claims that Republicans “violate fundamental principles upon which American democracy was founded” as they push “American democracy to its breaking point.”

The progressive MSNBC employs fear tactics in claiming that some Republicans want people to believe that the country is actually a republic rather than a democracy because they want to strip power from voters in the presidential election and hand it to state legislatures.  They fail to address that the progressive socialist left wants to abolish the Electoral College so that a national election will be decided by a few large cities, such as in far-left California, at the expense of voters in small states.

If we had a "Democracy" and people were as racist as they are accused of being, then hypothetically, white folks could vote to have any and all minorities stripped of power, freedom, and property, and even thrown out of the country.
Needless to say, I am not advocating that.
 
Despite what you see on teevee and shows like some on Netflix, white people are 71% of the population. (as of 2020: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_United_States )

However (and I do not rue the fact) we have a Republic, where the rights of the minority are just as sacrosanct as the rights of those in the majority, and one group cannot just vote to take your stuff, your freedom, or your life, or other Rights enshrined in Constitutions of every State or the United States' Constitution.

Perhaps those clamoring for the totalitarian tyranny of mob rule should think it out and realize when they really are better off.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
