Majority rules!
I don't know how many times I heard that saying as a kid. I'm sure I even said it myself a few times. Nowadays my skin crawls when I hear it.
Here's a cute little You Tube video about that saying- or at least the idea- and about how individual rights can be trampled by majority rule. It focuses on same- sex marriages, but it would be nice to see something like this involve a wider range of issues.
Hat tip to C.L.S, over at the Classically Liberal blog (May 29th post) for the heads up.
First they came for the communists and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a communist....
