This could work both ways. One of the things I am extremely grateful for at the moment is that I live in Chicago, in Illinois, in a state where Democrats have supermajorities in the legislature and pretty much do what they want. I suggest we get together with other states in the same boat, and do what several southern states have done, shut out the feds and tell them we're not going to enforce any laws the Constitution says we don't have to. Florida's done it. So has Texas.

Let's take our constitutional states rights to the limit for the next four years.
