Why a) would I voluntarily put myself on Obama's "kill later" list, and b) would I ask executive branch permission for something that is not in their constitutional purview to grant?

Listen, I love the idea of state secession as much as any patriot. But this ISN'T the way to go about it.

Best way to go about it is to get your state to resist ANY and EVERY mandate out of this illegitimate federal government. Get your state's congress and governor to say, "SCREW YOU, OBAMA!" when told they will shut down power plants or implement Obamacare. Secede from this federal government, NOT the union itself. Less blood that way. At the beginning, at least.

I suppose there is a difference,
but isn’t refusing to abide by federal law/mandates,
simply de facto secession?

Egggsactly! There are 30 Republican Guvs. All they have to do is STOP obeying DC and STOP sending in the tax revenue. Then Obama and his Marxists will have their Cloward-Piven crash. Only then it will be Obama and his Marxists that will crash. JMHO.
