A Democracy is: Rule by Omnipotent Majority. In a Democracy, The Individual, and any group of Individuals composing any Minority, have no protection against the unlimited power of The Majority. It is a case of Majority-over-Man.
Contrast this with a Republic: a constitutionally limited government of the representative type, created by a written Constitution--adopted by the people and changeable (from its original meaning) by them only by its amendment--with its powers divided between three separate Branches. It protects the individual’s God-given, unalienable rights and therefore for the protection of the rights of The Minority, of all minorities, and the liberties of people in general.

In Egypt, this real democratic state has created a majority mob rule by the Muslim brotherhood's influence over the illiterate masses. And they will end up slaughtering the minorities, such as the Coptic Christians, all in the name of their real democratic state.
Ginsburg should know this.
May God have mercy on Egypt and be with my Coptic Christian friends there! Amen
Justice Ginsburg to Egyptians: Look to the Constitutions of South Africa or Canada, Not to the US ..
