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. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
