I answered you question.

Your, how you say "red herring" of a question is not the same either as there are no national referendums in the US.

And by simply switching to a real life situation (abortion vs marijuana) I showed how the citizens DO try and change laws through their votes.

And someone else pointed out that states have recall elections to "change their results" too.  It can happen.

But if you want to keep just saying "they voted, its over, we can never vote again" feel free.  I'm engaging in the discussion that there are variables at work to putting Brexit into effect.  Not that people are INTENTIONALLY "dragging their feet" but that it was an ill-thought out proposition in the first place and therefore much harder to do.  that leads to people thinking it is not worth doing.  that leads people to vote for people who will try and fight to change it/nullify it.

You know...democracy.

That's all.

But I never said they absolutely SHOULD do that...just that doing it would not be the end of democracy.
