It's nothing to do with violence and everything to do with the charade they put on. They didn't forget the plant exists. They allocate for it in appropriations every year, and they accept federal funds every year because the aforementioned contamination has made it an EPA superfund site. They know it would be a political impasse, and they could push Pantex out of the state to avoid the problem - but they don't. The idea of secession was and is, to the majority of the legislature, a tool for agitation. That is why it is hilarious, it's an elaborate exercise in "hear what I say, see not what I do". To think my comment was about "using violence to force other people to be chained to a political union" is to play right into their trick.
