I agree with you on that one

How did this thread go from Arizona to abortion
Honestly I tried coming up with an AZ joke but there's practically nothing there that I can think of that is worth jestering over..What would Arizona do by itself; sell more turquoise jewelry? Charge higher entry fees to Grand Canyon? Can you imagine the price of produce and seafood? Bwahahahaha....

So that means America will become a libertarian-socialist someday?
But it fits your definition.
Yeah, it is really not funny. What will they do with all the Native Americans that are on the reservations? Once those US dollars stop rolling in, what happens? From what I saw of Arizona, they would have a difficult time going independent. Granted, I did not tour the entire state, but geez. I think there are more trees in my county than the entire state of AZ. Guess they would sell solar powered electricity.Honestly I tried coming up with an AZ joke but there's practically nothing there that I can think of that is worth jestering over..
perhaps you confused it with benevolent dictatorship

Yep. That was settled several pages ago. It is really a shame that there are people that are so wrapped up in their own little delusional existence that they continue to deny what has been proven over and over. All in an attempt to make themselves appear intelligent and well informed. Sad that they don't realize they are getting exactly the opposite result.
Be it ordained by the people of Texas in Convention assembled, That we acknowledge the supremacy of the Constitution of the United States, and the laws passed in pursuance thereof; and that an Ordinance adopted by a former Convention of the people of Texas on the 1st day of February, A.D. 1861, entitled "An Ordinance to Dissolve the Union between the State of Texas and the other States, united under the compact styled 'Constitution of the United States of America,'" be and the same is hereby declared null and void; and the right heretofore claimed by the State of Texas to secede from the Union, is hereby distinctly renounced. Passed 15th March, 1866.

I can illustrate using an analogy to better show you with precise clarity .....
Mr. and Mrs. Union are a lawfully wedded couple. They both married, then began having marital disputes over marital duties. Eventually, Mrs. Union told her spouse, "you know what, I have had enough, you have made my life miserable and I simply wish to dissolve our marriage peacefully".
So with that, Mrs. Union planned her divorce. Mr. Union, however, was furious. He told her "You do not have the 'right' to leave me, it is important to our entire family that we stay together".
Mrs. Union said "Get bent, I am leaving".
Mr. Union then chased after Mrs. Union, beat her to a bloody pulp, burned down her parents back yard and house and dragged her kicking and screaming back into the marriage.
Did she have a right to leave?

Errors of Logic
You do realize that this document was merely stating that Texas had never seceded from the Union in 1861 don't you? That their State's Secession was "null and void" in 1861 and they were rejoining the Union ..... it did not waive any rights to secede as you and Jillio have been fallaciously stating.
Where is a document making it illegal for Texas to secede?
You have still not provided anything ..... I showed you a Constitutional Scholar's own words saying that States have the right to secede.
It is illegal for Texas to secede the way they want now. Do you even know the proper procedure to secede?
Do you realize you were arguing there was no proper or legal way to secede prior to this post?
