    All of which indicates your complete misunderstanding of Jeffersonian democracy.

    Modern liberalism has never achieved anything other than giving Secularists something to feel morally superior about

    And also your complete misunderstanding of tyranny.

    This statement was never false.

      Then laws concerning murder are also tyrannical? They surely limit how you may freely choose to act. In fact, laws concerning restricting abortion, gay marriage, drugs, and the rest are also in fact, tyrannical by your definition. Interesting. I like where this is headed. Hedonism is on the way once we get rid of tyranny.

      This statement was never false.

      Well, not quite, hedonism would lead to anarchy, which, if anything, is the most complete formof tyranny. You cannot escape tyranny - that is the entire point of Jeffersonianism.

        I'm not the one who misunderstands it. Tyranny is an absolute. How you manage it is the only variable.
