Look, a state can, if it wants, become independent. I would think a state thus freed from Fedgov would take matters of civil violence into their own hands.

The state still has a police force, a governor, a legislature and all the trappings of a national government IN PLACE second one upon secession.

How does a state “decide” to become independent in this day? Referendum? State legislature? Governor decree? In the days (weeks? months?) leading up to the vote, what do you think will be going on? How much FedGov agitating will be going on? How many “voters” will be slipped in? How many leaders of the secession movement will have a sudden and unexpected change of heart one morning?
