Reasonable.

Peale, C.W., Portrait of Thomas Jefferson (detail), 1791


Steve points to a timely reminder from Jefferson ...
[T]hough the will of the majority is in all cases to prevail, that will, to be rightful, must be reasonable; that the minority possess their equal rights, which equal laws must protect, and to violate would be oppression.
