It would be really interesting to see a state pass a resolution requesting

would have to decide if it was worth the risk to come without the TFR's and
blocked roads (and other trappings of power). Maybe state's rights do have
a place in our modern world after all.

What a great idea, Bob! The closest I've seen to that in the real world so far
is the serious discussion in New York to bill the Feds for the cost of police
work due to the security for presidential visits.
