[QUOTE="Jack T., post: 2297226, member: 412"] As the OP states, I'm suggesting that nullification at the State level is a way to balance things out. What are the Feds gonna do if, for instance, Oklahoma says (as other states already have), "You don't have authority to regulate firearms. . .that authority lies solely with the state?" They gonna cut our funding? Well, that will hurt. . .in the short-term. Are *you* suggesting that they will initiate violence against Oklahomans if we do something like that? Again, this is at the State level, not at the individual level. I already had. . .but this gave me a ray of hope. False hope, perhaps, but nobody who is intellectually honest can say that the current American government can last given the current trend. Look, I'm not trying to change anybody's mind. . .I'm just saying that the "Supremacy Clause" has been beaten into us for years, without the "Pursuant to the Constitution" being mentioned at all.
