Democracy is Overrated

Normally, I don't comment on this sort of thing, but it isn't often that one comes across a political poster of such thundering stupidity devoid of any concept of history or even artistic sensibility.

From the context, I presume that the, for want of a better word, "author" of the piece is referring to the United States. Perhaps someone would be good enough to take this person aside and point out that it was men who gave women the vote and passed virtually all the pro-feminist legislation; it was whites who emancipated blacks at the cost of a bloody civil war, gave them the vote, and passed every civil rights act; and it was Christians who established freedom of worship and all the other protections every creed, including atheism, enjoys.

I particularly like the conclusion: Some things are too important to vote on, so take to the streets in the best brown shirts' tradition.

Yes, to Hell with democracy; legislation by the mob is the only way.
