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 |
| The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to permit the conquered Eastern peoples to have arms. History teaches that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by doing so. Indeed I would go so far as to say that the underdog is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty. So let's not have any native militia or police. German troops alone will bear the sole responsibility for the maintenance of law and order. — Adolf Hitler, April 11, 1942. (Source: "Hitler's Table-Talk at the Fuehrer's Headquarters 1941-1942", Dr. Henry Picker, ed. (Athenaeum Verlag, Bonn, 1951).) |
