“What these “Democrats” fail to remember that democracy, in
its shining moment, elected a madman who built his popularity on a
two planks, summary Justice and ruinous War. Democracy started the
Atomic Wars but could neither end it or clean up after it was done.
Democracy coddled the criminals because a democracy isn’t about who
right but who is popular. Ask any addict, who is more popular then
the guy selling drugs? Ask any streetwalker, who is more popular
then the man who pays you? Ask anybody behind on their taxes, Who
is more popular the the man who throws bombs at at the
Revenuers?”

-Chief Judge Hadrian Volt, Judge Dredd
