State boundaries exist for a reason: to delineate where one set of citizens has the right to govern themselves and another doesn’t. Indiana and Missouri do many things differently from Illinois — and, we regret to say, sometimes better. But we are free to follow their example anytime we want. Those other states can’t impose their policies on the Land of Lincoln.

Denial ain't just a river in Egypt. The other states would be 'imposing' NOTHING.
The federal government would, pursuant to its delegated power to do so in perfect compliance with the 10th Amendment. Article IV Section 1 gives the feds the power to mandate recognition of all "public Acts, Records and judicial Proceedings" of each state by all the others.
Period. You may not like that, but hey, fasten your seatbelt - it's going to be a bumpy ride. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
By calling attention to a well-regulated militia for the security of the Nation, and the right of each citizen to keep and bear arms, our Founding Fathers recognized the essentially civilian nature of our economy. Although it is extremely unlikely that the fears of governmental tyranny, which gave rise to the second amendment, will ever be a major danger to our Nation, the amendment still remains an important declaration of our basic military-civilian relationships, in which every citizen must be ready to participate in the defense of the country. For that reason I believe the second amendment will always be important. --JOHN F. KENNEDY |
