A stone wall isn't gonna do shit to defend against the 2A

Even if the only people attacking were a small group of farmers, bullets can still break through rocks and a few shots could knock down a huge chunk of the wall

Walls are pointless in a modern age

Hecking, Venetians. Byzantium was a glorious nation that didn't deserve to fall.

though I also love the Ottoman Empire so I was fine either way.

You have no idea about munitions. 5 feet of concrete isn't to hard to get though. Especially when it's in wall form. We have bunker busters for a reason

There would be sounded by castle walls and only those with special cards could get in. They would have to apply to get one online and in it they would have to sign away their right to bring the city or business to court. After the sign that and give their name email and phone number. They would get a card shipped to them. Preferably I would have 1000 square miles of some state that is loosly populated enough to have up for sale.

You are aware that just because someone signs a contract doesn't make it enforceable right? Like, there are numerous ways that contracts can be invalidated, enforcing an illegal provision is one of them.

There will be no secession. Just a technical sovereign city who takes advantage of stupid loopholes. If they say stop I will say pass laws to make me have to stop :)

Nah, it would go something like this:

The city declares itself sovereign. The US doesn't respond, because a 'declaration of sovereignty' is not actually a thing. So, during tax season, they send an inspector around in order to claim taxes. Either this tax inspector gets his due, or he is kicked out. If it's the latter, the US will send a police force to arrest those people responsible. Either the criminals come willingly or they resist. Either way, the police will have their asses. No bombs required.

Also, using bombs would be a crime against humanity.

We have taken our time to show you why your 'loophole' is not a loophole at all. Start responding to those messages first, because they neatly show why you are rong.
