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 |
| Government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.... We've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. Well, if no one among us is capable of government himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? All of us together, in and out of government, must bear the burden. The solutions we seek must be equitable, with no one group singled out to pay a higher price. — Ronald Reagan |
