SCOTUS:

"Federal Supremacy. SB1433 overturned."

Arizona:

(not that this will pass in the first place.)

Of course, I would not cry much if Arizona DID pass this and try to act like they're a sovereign nation. Remember how that worked out last time? 49 to 1 odds this time, AZ...

Uhhh, I'd make that 48 to 1 odds. Arkansas wouldn't fight to keep em' in the union.

Whatever you want to say, the same principle from nullification applies directly to secession. Obviously, the federal government is going to enforce whatever the Arizona law nullifies, and thats going to create another battle of states' rights v. federal rights.

Unless you want to say the Civil War was not caused by tensions on the issue of State Rights v. Federal Rights.

The feds haven't been too busy enforcing marijuana laws in california have they? The last I heard you guys have defacto legalization of that crap.
