The author needs a refresher course in history; the Uniform Militia Act of 1793 defined the militia to be composed of two groups:
1. The organized militia. That is, those actually mustered to service, to drill or train.
2. The unorganized militia. Those are essentially those NOT in the first group. In other words, law abiding American citizens.
So, yea, WE are the militia.
You.
Me.
And our neighbors.

Sez you.
Personally, I trust Scalia, who conducted in-depth, exhaustive research into the historical Second Amendment and proved exactly the opposite. |

TO REMEMBER |
| A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious. But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates is less formidable, for he is known and carries his banner openly. But the traitor moves amongst those within the gate freely, his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the very halls of government itself. For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear. ~ Marcus Tullius Cicero (42B.C) |
