A Sovereign Colorado?

I really like the idea of Colorado expressing our sovereignty, using the 10th Amendment of the Constitution. The complete Constitutional amendment reads: "The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people."

Why don't we in Colorado, stand up for our sovereignty and place law on the books similar to that of a law like Montana, which states: If a gun and it's ammo is manufactured in Montana and does not leave the state (interstate commerce), the Federal Government does not have the power to regulate that gun or it's ammo. So the people in Montana can decide if they want certain kinds of guns or if they want background checks or whatever, it's their state their rules.

It sounds scary, like Colorado being it's own country. That is not quite like that. Simply what it means is we do not trust the Federal Government and let's put more power it into the hands of the individual states. Any power not mentioned in the Constitution belongs to the individual states.

This is not about Democrat vs. Republican. This is about a very poorly ran federal government with leaders we can not trust, and haven't been able to trust for quite some time. This is about not wanting to pay for other people's screw-ups. For example we are going to "bail out" California because they are "to big to fail". Last I checked, I had no vote in California, so I have NO CHOICE in their poor economic decisions, yet me and my children and my grand children, will be forced to pay for their mistakes. Essentially it is taxation without representation much like the same thing our founding fathers were fighting with King George III. We have placed (or they took) too much power from the individual states and now it is time to make this right.
