What I find most interesting is the way one state is willing to turn on another in such a viscious manner. The balkanization seems well underway.

Remember our nation is a collection of individual states. They can leave the the union anytime they wish. (Theoretically.)

No they can't. They could ask, each and every other state, and the congress to leave....if any of them said no, they would have to go to the Supreme Court. Again, all states and Congress would be parties and then say the compact they entered, was violated. If the Supreme's agreed, they they could leave.
Anything short of that, would not work. They can not just pick up and leave the Union.
Oh ya, or we could amend the US Constitution to allow for it.
I seem to recall that the last time states tried to break away it caused some "unpleasentness".Shawn wrote:Do you have a citation in the law or in court rulings for that?nofoa wrote:Remember our nation is a collection of individual states.

Not all unpleasantness is constitutional. I am still waiting for citations supporting the rather bold assertions above.eye95 wrote:I seem to recall that the last time states tried to break away it caused some "unpleasentness".Shawn wrote:Do you have a citation in the law or in court rulings for that?nofoa wrote:Remember our nation is a collection of individual states.

I wonder who came up with "Boycott Arizona". How dare other state governments and the federal government urge citizens to wage economic war on a fellow state of our union. I wish I could say it is the most mind blowing thing I has ever heard of, but I would be lying.canadian wrote:

Yes it is interesting that when Arizona decides to enforce laws other states/Government entities attempt to embargo us, which in some situations has been interpreted as an act of war.
But these other states/Government entities lack the courage to follow through with all their posturing.
Judge Andrew Napolitano says that a state can leave the union at any time and explains how it can be done.PrayingForWar wrote:Not all unpleasantness is constitutional.

That would be hard to pull off.Arizona should turn the tables on Kalifornia for that state's absurd "boycott" illegal alien a-- kissing. When Kalifornia starts having brownouts this summer, Arizona should refuse to sell them electrical power. See how fast that gets the commies' attention.
and we all wish Kalifornia would leave... I prefer the , sliding into the ocean method.Remember our nation is a collection of individual states. They can leave the the union anytime they wish. (Theoretically.)
