I can't believe why some people, who otherwise are democratic, choose to support feudal overlords.

The royal families are a bunch of inbred murderers. Better to be done with the lot of them.
Kings are neither dictators, nor tyrants.

A King is proclaimed by the people and rules through consent, and nowhere has this been more true than Scandanavia. Kings do not usually maintain large standing armies, heavily garrison their own domains, or employ huge secrect police networks.

Granted, there have been many bad Kings, but Europe's current crop of "elected"politicians are little better, sometimes worse.

Monarchy is the most popular system, ever. It can't be that bad.

In any case, none of this justifies the killing of a king. Generally when you kill a King you get something worse. Take a look at England or France, for a start.
