What is unbelievable is that someone thinks that the states have the right to enact laws designed to force Americans to fight or leave, and that it's ok with them.

It's called federalism. If a bunch of communists want to turn Massachusetts into a hellhole of taxation AND have the state constitution and the votes. Let them.

America was designed as 13 mini states functioning under a tighter umbrella than a federation. To the outside world they were one unit. Inside the borders, they were supposed to be 13 individual states.

It's a great idea since the parasites of communism could get together and screw up ONE state, not all of them at once.

Of course the Civil War and the subsequent growth of the federal levianthan we call government has replaced that concept.
