conservative are a lot more dangerous then liberals when it comes to a decision like the one you mention because if they ever feel that the country is lost it wont be protesting on the streets because we know how to take a stand and if we ever chose to cross a line it will be a lot like the line crossed during the American revolution. that being said we are know where near needing to consider crossing that type of line.

The crossing of a small stream in northern Italy became one of ancient history’s most pivotal events . . . Julius Caesar manipulated his way to the Roman Legionary position of consul of Rome in 59 BC. After his year of service he was named governor of Gaul . . . Caesar’s popularity with the people soared, presenting a threat to the power of the Senate and to Pompey, who held power in Rome. Accordingly, the Senate called upon Caesar to resign his command and disband his army or risk being declared an “Enemy of the State”.
It was January 49 BC, Caesar was staying in the northern Italian city of Ravenna and he had a decision to make. Either he acquiesced to the Senate’s command or he moved southward to confront Pompey and plunge the Roman Republic into a bloody civil war. An ancient Roman law forbade any general from crossing the Rubicon River and entering Italy proper with a standing army. To do so was treason. This tiny stream would reveal Caesar’s intentions and mark the point of no return.
. . . Coming up with his troops on the banks of the Rubicon, which was the frontier of his province, he halted for a while . . . Caesar cried out, ‘Let us go where the omens of the Gods and the crimes of our enemies summon us! THE DIE IS NOW CAST!’ Accordingly he marched his army over the river . . . [And the rest is history.]

Moments in time when a line is crossed can be remembered forever. America’s enemies would do well to consider that risk before taking their temper tantrums too far. Otherwise, they may well become a part of history rather than merely uninformed professors, teachers, and students of history.
