Contributing sentiments towards policy:

51% :COE also says it's possible that the total number of Oath Keepers in the database affiliated with law enforcement, military, or public office could be higher, depending on how much an individual values privacy.
49% : From the leaked list, COE identified 1,100 individuals who previously served in law enforcement and estimated that thousands -- "one in ten of the individuals in the database" -- had "served in the military in some prior capacity."
48% : Oath Keepers had a policy that "members currently serving in law enforcement and the military" could "participate in the organization without formally signing up" because Oath Keepers understood "that formal association with the organization could endanger their employment."
47% : COE's report says that the hundreds of people identified as likely active law enforcement was "far higher than any previously identified number of extremists within law enforcement," and, though much lower, the discovery of dozens of elected officials is "deeply concerning."
43% : Since 2009, the anti-government extremist group Oath Keepers has grown more extreme, preparing for civil war by recruiting law enforcement and military into local chapters nationwide.
