These thoughts have been on my mind for quite some time now. I'd like to hear your thoughts as well.

The US government no longer seems to be concerned if something is legal or not. Why should Texas? TEXIT!

In fact, the ratification documents of Virginia, New York and Rhode Island explicitly said they held the right to resume powers delegated should the federal government become abusive of those powers. The Constitution never would have been ratified if states thought they could not regain their sovereignty — in a word, secede.

If the Civil War made secession illegal that is like saying “might makes right.” That is a saying everyone rejects. A halfway step of non-cooperation by as many States as can be enlisted would have a humbling effect on the Feds. Some States refused to enforce the Feds fugitive slave laws. Some States are now making marijuana legal and that defies Federal law. Some States are, by statute, saying they will refuse to enforce Federal gun laws. There are many things the States can do to tie the hands of the Feds. Enforcing the 10th Amendment would be a good starting point. And never let the argument between the Feds and a State be resolved by the SCOTUS. That is like you and I having an argument and your wife decides between us.
