Perhaps the various state legislatures are taking the temperature of the body politic and find within it a fever of liberty and resistance to tyranny.
They are being dragged along by the temperment of their constituents. These legislatures are not in the lead on this sentiment, but are following the bent of their constituencies. That is a good thing.
We won't know if they mean it, until the Feds overstep the warnings. At that point the states so stating their non-compliance will either arrest and try the agents of the offending federal agency, even if it means armed conflict or they will roll over.
I'm betting roll over, but hope I am wrong.
The showdown is inevitable, because the federal government has been too long trained by us to expect only words of resistance and not acts of resistance. Therefore they will overstep. I pray we are not found wanting as men who would be free.
