Koan it is the point. Your claim was not that they were brutal, but that they could not hold together. I posted "A society can be held together without democracy", and you insisted I was wrong.>>

No! My point was always that societies were brutal without democracy. That is what a society is without Habeas corpus. That has always been my main point. It was a primary concern to everyone all through history before our democracy. Why they addressed it straight out.

That is what you don't get. Maybe you lack empathy and have no idea what basic common decency is about?
