No. That is what a dictatorship is for. Democracy is for people to vote and decide for themselves.

No it does not. However in this case, your blame was misplaced.

Democracy in todays America resembles a dictatorship. Do you really think that you have a voice when you vote? You don't.

Yes, you do. You can vote for who ever you want in a primary and on election day.

Just sad. And clueless ignorant liberals will continue to defend it. Makes me sick.

It was peaceful this is a small group of people (young and dumb) who went off path of an otherwise peaceful protest just to get on television and make everyone a little more racist and black people everywhere disgusted. I have to commend the city government on cleaning up the mess. I drove down Pratt St yesterday morning and there was no sign that anything had happened. The streets were immaculate, there was no broken glass, and tourists were everywhere.

From everything I've seen there are many more violent protestors than peaceful ones, so if you're going to make that claim I'm not seeing any evidence for it.
