“And what has come to prevail in democracies is the very reverse of beneficial, in those, that is, which are regarded as the most democratically run. The reason for this lies in the failure properly to define liberty. For there are two marks by which democracy is thought to be defined: "sovereignty of the majority" and "liberty."

In this case, the intolerance is perverse since it masquerades under the 'liberal' rhetoric of 'equal time'.”
