re: #316 Dangerman (slowly converting a pool into a pond)

In 1860 Southern state leaders in Congress saw their iron grip on power (which they deemed necessary to defend slavery) in peril and most of them opted to support a rebellion and civil war.

Parallels are not quite the same, but it’s politicians deciding that their oaths and the Constitution are to be sacrificed.
