We, the State of Arizona, has a “contract” with the United States Govt. to Protect the State from Invasion. The Federal Govt has decided not to honor their responsibility and their contract with the State of Arizona.

“Arizona should secede”

You know what? That exact thought crossed my mind when this broke this afternoon on Fox. Megyn kelly said if they had not confirmed it themselves, she would not have believed it.
I watched a fisherman in Louisiana in tears begging, pleading for the president of the United States of AMERICA to DO something to help Louisiana.
This is outrageous. ALL of it. Every state who has paid tax dollars to this government and which are being blatantly dissed and ignored because they have responsible governors, should threaten to secede, and NONE of them should process anymore federal tax dollars to this pos government...period!

Arizona should secede”

I would like to see the WESTERN UNITED STATES:

Arizona
New Mexico
Texas
Missouri
Oklahoma
Kansas
Nebraska
S Dakota
N Dakota
Utah
Colorado
Nevada
Montana
Wyoming
Idaho

These 15 states are contigous & have more in common with each other than the rest of the states we now have.

Drill for their own oil, gas etc

Mine coal, gold, silver, titanium, etc

Ranch & farm without the intrusion of the EPA

Use perfectly good water for irrigation instead of sending it to the cities for swimming pools that no one swims in.

Use their own power they can create without sending one kilowatt to the cities outside their boundaries

Protect their own borders in any way they see fit

Have a judicial system that does NOT just become a revolving door for criminals

I would support this in a heartbeat.

Agreed, the Federal Government is now acting against the will of the American people, I would start the process to withdraw from the union right now if I were Arizona.

Thank God for Jan Brewer.. Let’s see more Americans take this brave stand against the Anti-Americans in power. It’s clear our Government has been hijacked by Marxists, and more and more Americans are waking up to this fact. Time will tell where this goes, but that’s what NOVEMBER IS FOR. November will be AMERICANS final “peaceful” stand. After that, all bets are off, and so too the gloves.

Arizona should secede

We ALL should secede, except the District of Columbia New Kenya New Chicago. We could call ourselves something fresh, something catchy. Like THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

Since Arizona was a Confederate territory and the South never offically surrendered. It should just declare it’s independence. Besides the Federal goverment does not have a constitutionally elected President ( article 2) and therefore has no legal right to make demands on Arizona.

State of Arizona House of Representatives Forty-fourth Legislature Second Regular Session 2000

HCR 2034 Introduced by Representatives Johnson, Cooley ----------------------------------------------

A CONCURRENT RESOLUTION

PROPOSING THE DISSOLUTION OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA IF CERTAIN CONDITIONS OCCUR.

Whereas, on July 4, 1776, our founding fathers proclaimed that the people had the right to alter or abolish their government and declared thirteen British colonies to be free and independent, or sovereign, states; and

Whereas, on March 1, 1781, the thirteen states formed a central government they called the United States of America under a charter known as the Articles of Confederation and Perpetual Union, which stated that "each state retains its sovereignty, freedom and independence"; and

Whereas, on September 17, 1787, the leaders of the Continental Congress signed the present Constitution of the United States, which was then transmitted to the thirteen states for ratification and the formation of a new central government; and

Whereas, several of the states delayed ratification of the Constitution and three states made clear their position regarding sovereignty by stating that "the powers of government may be resumed by the people whensoever it shall become necessary to their happiness"; and

Whereas, eventually all thirteen of the independent states ratified the Constitution of the United States and joined the new Union, while retaining their sovereignty as states. The states made the new central government sovereign only to the extent that the states delegated to it limited and specific powers; and

Whereas, the Constitution of the United States is merely a treaty among sovereigns, and under treaty law when one party violates the treaty the other parties are automatically released from further adherence to it unless they wish to continue; and

Whereas, the fifty current principals, or signatories, to the treaty have done well in honoring and obeying it, yet the federal agent has, for decades, violated it in both word and spirit. The many violations of the Constitution of the United States by the federal government include disposing of federal property without the approval of Congress, usurping jurisdiction from the states in such matters as abortion and firearms rights and seeking control of public lands within state borders; and

Whereas, under Article V, Constitution of the United States, three- fourths of the states may abolish the federal government. In the alternative, if the states choose to exercise their inherent right as sovereigns, fewer than thirty-eight states may lawfully choose to ignore Article V, Constitution of the United States, and establish a new federal government for themselves by following the precedent established by Article VII, Constitution of the United States, in which nine of the existing thirteen states dissolved the existing Union under the Articles of Confederation and automatically superceded the Articles.

Therefore

Be it resolved by the House of Representatives of the State of Arizona, the Senate concurring:

1. That when or if the President of the United States, the Congress of the United States or any other federal agent or agency declares the Constitution of the United States to be suspended or abolished, if the President or any other federal entity attempts to institute martial law or its equivalent without an official declaration in one or more of the states without the consent of that state or if any federal order attempts to make it unlawful for individual Americans to own firearms or to confiscate firearms, the State of Arizona, when joined by thirty-four of the other fifty states, declares as follows: that the states resume all state powers delegated by the Constitution of the United States and assume total sovereignty; that the states re- ratify and re-establish the present Constitution of the United States as the charter for the formation of a new federal government, to be followed by the election of a new Congress and President and the reorganization of a new judiciary, similarly following the precedent and procedures of the founding fathers; that individual members of the military return to their respective states and report to the Governor until a new President is elected; that each state assume a negotiated, prorated share of the national debt; that all land within the borders of a state belongs to the state until sold or ceded to the central government by the state's Legislature and Governor; and that once thirty-five states have agreed to form a new government, each of the remaining fifteen be permitted to join the new confederation on application.

2. That the Secretary of State of the State of Arizona transmit copies of this Resolution to the President of the United States, the President of the United States Senate, the Speaker of the United States House of Representatives and each Member of Congress from the State of Arizona.
