So you are going to say the dictionary is wrong and you are right?
Yes, your dictionary is wrong.
An Important Distinction: Democracy versus Republic
OWS protesters get pepper sprayed for breaking the law and are hailed as heroes. In syria, protesters call for revolution to overthrow a government that is the kind OWS is calling for, many get shot and killed by the government, and die anonymously. You people have no idea the type of horrific tyrannical government that your "revolution" will bring us. What gives YOU the right to choose how others live? Please disband and consider legal means of change, and while you are at it educate yourselves on what liberty really is...it is a government that secures liberty not a government that provides everything to a society of lazy degenerates. These OWSers, like the successful statist uprisings across the world have managed to do nothing to secure liberty, yet have secured tyranny in every country where the people demand free stuff.
Democracies give no power to minorities.
Neither does any other form of government. That's why we have the Bill of Rights -- which is designed to give PROTECTION, not power, to minorities.

An Important Distinction: Democracy versus Republic
There is no distinction between democracy and republic. A republic may be either democratic or aristocratic. Those who draw a false distinction between democracy and republic are exhibiting their support for aristocracy.
That includes the tirade you linked.

We are a democracy.
Your argument is not with us but with EVERY dictionary and encyclopedia in the world
A federal republic is a federation of states with a republican form of government. A federation is the central government. The states in a federation also maintain the federation. Usage of the term republic is inconsistent but, as a minimum, it means a state or federation of states that does not have a monarch.
In a federal republic, there is a division of powers between the national ("federal") government, and the government of the individual subdivisions. While each federal republic manages this division of powers differently, national security and defense, monetary policy, and other issues of a "national" scope are handled at the "federal" level while more local issues such as road and infrastructure maintenance and education policy are handled at the local level. In other words, while the federal government has ultimate sovereignty, there is a limited sovereignty granted to the subdivisions, where the federal government does not have jurisdiction. This is in contrast to a unitary republic whereby the national government has complete sovereignty over all aspects of political life, with purely administrative subdivisions, and a confederation whereby the constituent states retain ultimate sovereignty. The form of government is used by many countries around the world.

A Constitutional Republic is a state where the officials are elected as representatives of the people, and must govern according to existing constitutional law that limits the government's power over citizens.
A Constitutional Republic is the current form of government in the United States. However in recent years, many people have criticized the federal government for moving away from a Constitutional Republic, as defined by the Constitution, and towards a pure democracy.[1]
TeamLaw.org defines a Constitutional Republic as follows:
A Republic, by definition, has two principle elements. First, it is controlled by Law; therefore, it does not control Law. Second, it recognizes the private independent sovereign nature of each person (man or woman) of competent age and capacity; therefore, a Republic must be representative in its nature.
A Republic recognizes Law is unchangeable, or at least that it can only be changed by a higher source than government. In a Republic the concept of collective sovereignty cannot exist, except with recognition that the State or nation, as a body of sovereigns, can speak through one elected voice; though that one voice can never lawfully interfere with the private rights of the individual sovereigns.
A Constitutional Republic is a government created and controlled, at least, by the Law of a Constitution. The Constitution of the United States of America was, in Law, a foundation based on the Bible, the Magna Carta and the Declaration of Independence. Those documents recognize mans sovereignty, the divine nature of mans creation and mans divine right to Life, Liberty, the means of acquiring and possessing Property, and the pursuit of happiness.[2] Constitutional Republic - Conservapedia
what the fuck? Education is a big one. How do you not know this? This has been going on for over a month. Where have you been?
"Free?" They, what, demanded that teachers and faculty work for free?
LOL holy shit you are an idiot. free tuition, moron. They want government to forgive the loans. Where the hell have you been?
Do OWSers understand what they are calling for is tyranny?
yeah but you skip an important detail. it is protection...FROM GOVERNMENT. GASP!
Thus, the republic, aka rule of law (if you look at the latin roots)
[rule of law] is what our constitution preserves. NOT DEMOCRACY.
"Free?" They, what, demanded that teachers and faculty work for free?
LOL holy shit you are an idiot. free tuition, moron. They want government to forgive the loans. Where the hell have you been?
Well that's not a reasonable demand. Can you please elaborate and provide a link to what the institution said so I can pore it over?
Nobody wants a new constitution or the overthrow of the gov't- just justice for the non rich. You dupes are brainwashed morons. But they should pack up for the winter, and probably go for 1 Day or weekend GIANT protests...where they clean up...for the fuddy duddy dittoheads lol.
Yes I believe like 97 percent don't want to pay for their college education. If they feel they've been duped, I suggest they protest their schools and demand a refund.
Do OWSers understand what they are calling for is tyranny?
everyone is wrong but the corporations to you people huh?
