More Tea Party madness. Can’t wait for the inevitable trumped-up opportunity to test this little experiment in sovereignty.

“Carbon County does not recognize any attempt by a federal official to try to enforce state or local criminal or civil laws….”

I’m afraid I agree.

From this day forward, no Social Security checks should be mailed to Carbon County; no Medicare reimbursements should be made there; FDIC coverage should be withdrawn there; Federal Reserve notes should no longer be circulated there; its federally-chartered banks should close; its federal highway, education, and disaster relief funds should be cut off and repaid.

Oh, and that federal charter, the Constitution, should no longer be enforced there, including its federal guarantee of the right to bear arms.

Does anyone have an address for the Carbon County Commission? I wish to send them a copy of the Constitution of the United States. Apparently they misplaced theirs (not to mention haven’t read it).

Put up a border fence and throw them out of the country.

Dumb phuqs. Do they realize that BLM has never attempted to enforce LOCAL and STATE laws but rather Federal land use laws? Such as what was being violated in Nevada by Ms. Bundy his Bundy Commune residents?

What planet are these folks from?? Didn’t have their Wheaties today?

How stupid can they be? I guess we haven’t reached the bottom of the stupid barrel yet, have we?

By the way, who in Carbon County can show they have title to federal lands?

So . . . wonder of the County Attorney bothered to inform them of this little thing called Seditious conspiracy, also know as 18 U.S. Code § 2384: “If two or more persons in any State or Territory, or in any place
subject to the jurisdiction of the United States, conspire to overthrow,
put down, or to destroy by force the Government of the United States, or to levy war against them, or to oppose by force the authority thereof, or by force to prevent, hinder, or delay the execution of any law of the United States, or by force to seize, take, or possess any property of the United States contrary to the authority thereof, they shall each be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than twenty years, or both.”

Um, well, I suppose that makes perfect sense. Nor, as a taxpayer of another state, would I want the Federal goverment to be enforcing the local laws… that’s what state and local law enforcement are for.

I hope they’re still OK with Federal agents enforcing federal laws, because if not, there’s going to be a real problem.

You may not be able to fix stupid, but you can stun it pretty well with a baseball bat to the head.

Yeah, I just think they want to ensure the Federal goverment doesn’t provide mutual aide if the local yokels can’t enforce local law. I think I’m OK with that.

Dam. Fort Sumpter all over again.

Carbon county all of 21,000 people and apparently fervent
subscribers to the ‘sagebrush revolution’. Our county
commissioners (tea baggers) here in Montana even invited a few
of the Utah types to lecture on the need to take back federal land
and forests. Seditious RWNJs incapable of powering a ten watt
bulb.
