I'm saying is that if you believe in a cause, support it. If you don't but your team does, don't stay on that team. |

You first protest it to your group if you don't like it, if they still will, well, you can leave the country. It's when your team is experiencing a major catastrophe when you should leave if you don't want to take part, other than that, change a political party, or just don't support it. It's just one event over many that you is a negative. |
