An interesting observation, considering the topic of independence hadn’t been mentioned at all here until your response, and the one that preceded it.

You know I’m more than happy to engage in the wider constitutional debate, but to do so here would allow legitimate and serious concerns about a Federal military build up on Intaki Prime to be distracted by those who have little argument to defend such deployments.
