And its a simple answer...its what the large majority believe. Its not what I believe, its not what you believe, but we are in the minority at this point in this situation. however, if its what the community wants and what the community is invested in, and no one is being hurt by it...then by all means they shoudl be allowed to proceed as they see fit.

It doesn't matter if it's what the majority want. Certain sections of the US Constitution were written specifically to prevent the majority from democratically voting for laws that would infringe on the rights of minority members.
