User blog comment:Doc (K-)Flux(7)/Free Speech- How it applies to us, and how we should use it/@comment-9774704-20140612210507

It is impossible to have true democracy when it comes to ruling an entire country. There no way you can get every single person to vote, and even then, they have to pick a party/leader. "The majority" is not "a democracy". Now, that being said, I actually admire and appreciate the wisdom and foresight the United States founding fathers had when constructing their government. However, I'm not a USian, and the fact that your government was extremely well thought out and (provided you actually stick with the vision your founders laid via constitution) admirable is nice and all - but I'm a little sick of hearing all about how to solve political and social problems based on your Consitution. Why don't we hear anything about how to uphold freedom of speech using examples from British law and government policy?
