Democracy robs freedom of choice from minorities. Unalienable rights are rights that cannot be taken away, not even by 100% majority rule vote. Unalienable rights protect the freedom of choice of minorities and individuals. Majority rule vote cannot take away, dilute, or add qualifiers to unalienable rights. America is a Constitutional Republic, designed to protect those unalienable rights. America is not and has never been a Democracy. Legislatures cannot remove or limit unalienable rights with legislation, and supreme courts cannot rule away unalienable rights.
