It doesn't have to be fair to you just the majority of the stockholders. True, you can reject the offer as a stockholder but the company's stock will be taken off the exchange once the 50+% stockholder decides the company will no longer be public. So if you want to ever sell you'll have to look for a buyer yourself. Imagine having all your money locked up. Not knowing when, if ever, you'll be able to get your money out. Also, if you try to go to court then you'll have to finance the suit and you'll have to have a valid reason to go to court. And to top it all as a minority stockholder you'll have very little influence over how to run the company. It's easier to sell at the price that's offered.
