That was the insult I was talking about.
Alloy, you've make a good point, and many soldiers and police have already decided that the line was too close and left the service or found different careers.
At the start of the Civil War there was a scene that played out at West Point where all the cadets with Southern sympathies left the academy to return to their states to fight for the Confederacy. What a tragic moment that must have been to experience. I pray that we never have to live through that sort of upheaval again. Was the Civil War neccesary? I don't think so, but I think that it occurred because the system was broken and too many people thought that their own state's interests were more important than figuring out a peaceful resolution within the guidelines set by the constitution.
