The US is not a democracy (thankfully). If 51% of the people decided
to kill everyone with Dutch ancestry, are you OK with that?

Hey Han, I have a Taliban wardrobe and convincing fake ID I can sell
you if Americans of Dutch ancestry are voted out of the US .

Thanks, Dave. I'm too upstanding a citizen to worry, really, but so
thought the German Jews once upon a time. But this is not really a subject
to kid about. The whole idea of modern democracies and also of our
republic is that we will not capriciously discriminate against portions of
our population, or so I would hope. The deliberative nature of the US
Senate was supposed to take care of that if the House didn't.
