Re: Democracy taken too far?

and then there is Wangen 2007. They local government didn't allow a minaret to be built in the town. There were over 70 written complaints by people who were against having the minaret built. The case was taken to a Federal level. The Bundesgericht decided Wangen was wrong in not allowing religious freedom and now there's a minaret standing.

This was the beginning of the minaret initiative.
