This is not how democracy works, what you described is just a dictatorship of majority (in this case it is literally the minority). Democracy implies that everyone, minority or majority can express opinions and vote freely in ideas that do not harm specific group liberties.
How can an opinion harm specific group liberties? It's just an opinion against another opinion in the worst case.
