said by inteller:no, the vote of the majority is not a dictatorship, it is a democracy. Damn kid, you need to take high school civics. A dictatorship is ONE person inflicting his will on the citizens. See Castro and Kim Jong Il for examples.

Plus, they are probably using some public service that others pay taxes and dont use, so it all works out. This lawsuit is all about stall tactics and underhanded manipulation of the political system. I would not doubt if one of these two people work for the incumbants.
