Arizona is prepared to Secede !

E-mail just forwarded to me ...

<< Arizona's House Committee on Federal Mandates and States Rights adopted,
by 3 to 2 vote, HRC 2034, a resolution calling for the dissolution of the
federal government in the event it abolishes the U.S. Constitution, declares
martial law or confiscates firearms. >>
 
Free Republic of Arizona huh? If that were to happen all local politicians involved would turn up dead. The Socialists have a pretty good record of eliminating such opposition. An entire state declairing indepindance would be unacceptable to them.
If at least three states were to do this at once, they would have a chance. I know Texas and Alaska has deep seperatist leanings.
 
I just got a response from Karen Johnson.

My note to her:

Ms Johnson,

I've been considering moving to AZ from CO for a few years. If your resolution passes, I'll pack up the truck and head south in a heartbeat.

It's about damn time someone told the feds to back off. Thanks for introducing this resolution.[/quote]

And the reply:
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>
Thank you for your encouraging e-mail regarding my controversial HCR 2034 legislation. Your vote of confidence is greatly appreciated, as the slings and arrows from the liberals have been coming fast and furiously.

I have no problem standing up for correct principles that our Constitution embodies and will continue to do so, but your support and/or prayers are very comforting.

By the way, HCR 2034 is a resolution that (if passed) would be sent to the President, Senate President, the Speaker of the House, and Members of Congress in Washington D.C. It would not go to a vote of the people in Arizona in case you heard that inaccurate report. Currently the HCR bill has passed out of my Federal Mandates and States' Rights Committee and also the Rules Committee. Last night we heard the bill in Caucus and moved it along. Next week the Committee of the Whole will be hearing and debating the bill. (emphasis added)

To my surprise, I have been receiving hundreds of e-mail from citizens outside my own district and state in support of this legislation. It is unfortunate that I cannot rally that kind of support among my own legislative colleagues. I am hoping for the best and will do everything in my power to pass this resolution out of the House of Representatives.

Once again, thank you for your support. I apologize for the lengthiness of this e-mail, but I wanted to update you.

Best regards,

Karen Johnson
AZ State Representative

We'll see more and more of this in years to come, and it may even come to pass. The problem is the bigger the federal gov't gets relative to the state gov'ts (i.e. the more unconstitutional usurpation of power that occurs), the less and less our voice is heard as citizens (due to the ratio of people to legislators becoming so ridiculously high that the legislators are ruled by the media, not us), and therefore the more discontent the people become, as the gov't laws get out of touch with the various states' citizens' values. That's why federalism as envisioned would have worked so well IF the Supreme Dorks would not have allowed "...regulate interstate commerce" to mean "....regulate anything you feel like". The more decentralization of power there is in a national structure, the more happy/content the people are, and therefore the less unrest. Since federal control is now this unstoppable juggernaut, I suspect civil war is ultimately inevitable.
 
I agree with Futo Inu.

The feds now have the power because they (not the states where we live) now take the bulk of our taxes. A King George kind of a deal.
Civil war (or, more rarely, peaceful dissolution) is the inevitable end of any union of states. The only question is when.
