BTW, I still respect your opinion, but expected more from you than simply disparaging remarks toward mine.

Of course I am, you have
no idea how the law works, nor how it should work.
It is there to protect ALL, minorities included, in many cases BECAUSE they are the minority. This is why we are not a Democracy and never should be. The majority should not be able to take rights away from the minority, The Bill of Rights should never be touched. Hence
inalienable rights.
I can think of VERY few reasons for the public to vote on laws, this is why we are a Representative Republic... the public, for the most part, have no idea how the law works and cares only for how things affect them and theirs and not minorities across the nation.
Democracy = mob rule/insanity.
