“So, go to it guys try mailing bullets to your next door neighbors ~ USPS will simply cut off all service throughout the state for any and all purposes. The federal reserve clearing house banks will quit processing your checks (which are “letter mail” and are handled outside the mails under an exception written into law).”

Of course the federal government will do that, but we have appropriate responses:

1) Deny all USPS employees and their families food, water, power and gas.

2) Withold all federal receipts.

3) Mint doubloons.

And as long as we’re engaging in comicbook fantasies, Wyoming can blow up Yellowstone and get the caldron spewing to dump 10 feet of ash on Washington DC.

That's beyond a comic book fantasy. For one thing there's the 100 ft of ash that'd drop on Wyoming, and then the sovereign state of Indiana (and a couple of others) would send in their National Guard units to punish you for messing up their exceedingly large properties.

There'd be no end to this Fur Shur.

But I think we've gone quite a ways in resolving the issues presented by the Independencias.
