Democracy can be killed by the abuse of human rights, it can also be killed by the abuse use of human rights. For example, if a cult's goal is to destroy democracy, should it be protected by the democracy? Is it more disturbing than a terrorist attack?

I'm not thinking of the many novels written about the cold war and the breaches of civil liberties foisted on society by totalitarian regimes but rather something along the lines of Police Academy or Naked Gun.
