The simple fact is that, from a purely theoretical standpoint, this article is true and valid.

I know one man in Oregon who is a State citizen. He's told me some interesting tales.
Also, I used to be in frequent touch with a Sheriff's Deputy in Placer County, Calif and he said that State citizenship is popular there.
