Thanks for the hard word folks and keep it going. It is time to concentrate hard on convincing others that nullification is the only tool that will fight Statism. Forget lawyers, federal politicians, and the federal judiciary. I think the time is drawing nigh.

First, I would say that it is the people who make up the federal government who are in a state of lawless rebellion, not the people of the several states who want to exercise their constitutional rights or the people in their state governments who know that they are duty bound to protect those rights. Court battles have often been part of state level constitutional resistance, however. They played a big role in Wisconsin's six year battle against the Fugitive Slave Act (FSA) in the 1850's. However, they didn't try to sue the federal government or ask their permission to "opt out" of the FSA. When their citizens were singled out for punishment, the state courts ordered them to be released and eventually the the Wisconsin Supreme Court declared the FSA to be unconstitutional. From that point, Wisconsin's governor, back by the citizens were committed to upholding their court's ruling and they did so successfully. Suing the federal government with the idea of letting the Supreme Court be the final arbiter of the dispute is a mistake in my opinion. The Supreme Court is part of the federal government and as a party to the dispute cannot be impartial.

I highly recommend H. Robert Baker's book, "The Rescue of Joshua Glover". Here is a link to a lecture of his on the subject worth watching:
http://forum-network.org/lecture/joshua-glover-fr…

"On March 11, 1854, the people of Wisconsin prevented federal government agents from carrying away the fugitive slave, Joshua Glover. Assembling outside the Milwaukee courthouse, the crowd demanded that the federal officers respect Glover's civil liberties as they would those of any other citizen. When the officers refused, the protesters rescued Glover. The government brought his rescuers to trial, but the Wisconsin Supreme Court intervened and took the bold step of ruling the Fugitive Slave Act unconstitutional."

This explains the alternative to voting for more usurpers in the federal government quite well even if it was not your intentions. I will not spend one more penny voting on a completely hijacked central government. Thank you Derek. I'm sharing!
