Militias Anyone?

[DemoDick115]

In our Constitution it gives us the right to form militias. Does anyone else think militias will rise if it comes to it?

[Deputy Dawg]

Yes, but you dont talk about it or brag about what you are doing. My Dad was invovled in several aroung the county for years before he died. He would talk to poeple about things going on today 30 years ago and poeple thought he was nuts.

[Sgt 45]

I think that is going to be word of mouth only. I'd bet NSA,FBI,ATF,HS, etc are keeping a real sharp eye out and will be trying to infiltrate and have some excuse to swoop down and bust everybody, steal their guns and put them in the gulag er prison.

[Dog Soldier]

The powerful arm of the Democratic Party known as the Southern Poverty Law Center even sees the Boy Scouts as a Militia. The Liberals have used the antimilita movement to control any group that disagrees with the left wing agenda.

They have churches on their list of militas. These churches are anti gay marriage and preach moral values. The anti milita movement is being used to assault any group who in not pro left.

[Jerryboy]

the first rule of the militia:

do NOT discuss the militia on the internet!

[ShawnDow]

What are we NOT discussing... Yahtzee any one? Look.. I just rolled a 2 2 3.. that can go with my 45 and M1...

I have seen there list from time to time and all that i can say is Really, you got to be kidding.

[Dog Soldier]

They will "paint" anyone they disagree with as milita or hate group.

Best to keep to your self.

[Appliancedude]

then how do you find one to join? its not like you can look it up in the phone book

[whirley]

Under the Pa. Constitution, all men, (presumably also all women) between that ages of 16-65 are automatically in the State Militia. They can be called out with or without arms, placed under control of the Sheriff or other appointed legal authority for whatever duty is necessary for the safety and well being of the population. That is still in effect, because if the Pa. National guard is activated for Federal service, there is no other force available to assist the local law enforcement. They can direct traffic, aid people in time of emergency etc. BUT always under command of the Local Sheriff or other authority!

get out and meet people. go to gun shows and talk to people you see there, hang out around your local hunting/gun stores, talk to your neighbors, friends, and coworkers. take professional prepper and tactical training; some of the instructors are sure to know of a group you can join.

some tips for starting out(these learned by hard experience):

if you join a militia's public online forum, assume it is just that: public. their views/beliefs are unlikely to line up exactly with everything they say on the forum. you have to earn their trust, and they yours.

also, be discreet. don't go handing out your real name and phone number for their leaders to contact you right away. attend at least a couple of meet & greets and at least one training exercise before giving out any personal information.

keep in mind that it isn't just an online forum like TFF; things you say and insults you hurl CAN and WILL have an effect on you in real life. therefore it would behoove you to save the mom jokes for CoD.


that's all i can think of for now.

[marlin795]

I will neither confirm nor deny ever being in or apart or in contact with Militias.

[1LoneWolf75]

The biggest problem I see with formin militias is that big brother watches everythin they deem suspicious. If a bunch of people are gettin together then you can bet yer bottom dollar that they are gonna look fer the reason why. Not sayin don't do it, just us yer head and be careful of who you trust.

[ShawnDow]

Hey... when a bunch of people get together in our area... It usually means there is going to be a bon-fire... beverages, and food!... If big brother wants to come out and have a bite, they best bring dessert!... when they leave.. then the real gathering starts.

The militias that formed part of this country's history in the formative years are similar only in name to the ones the tinfoil hat types, anarchists, and conspiracy-seers whisper about and participate in today.

[gvw3]

I think there is still a place for these groups in our country. Not the anti government radical anarchist type but the type that can be called up to defend our states in natural disasters and our borders.

Don't ever forget the USA was never supposed to have large standing armies. In time of war they were to call up the state militia's. This is clearly spelled out in the constitution.

I still think there is a place for these groups today. Not the radical nut jobs but true patriots ready to defend our country.

i'm Australian and i'll say what i like about what i bloodywell like , screw fascists

I went back packing across the US a couple time and got a lift with a Militia gent

now i seen stuff on TV documentaries about these very same people i met and its so bent it aint funny

Montana Militia nice folks , painted as racist on the show , 3rd one i met was a big exmarine and very much negro and proud of it , and sad for what many of his race had become , but had hope that when the obvious to him , hard times to come , would snap the good ones back to reality , and the bad ones , in his words if i remember right

we'll sir , i dont care , i just hope they dont hurt too many , but i hope against sense

farmers shop keeps , regular working folks is what i saw , patriots , some where conspiracy folks , along different ways

some folks here are too ..

some folks think me one , harping on about islam and UN etc etc ..

lots a lib's are too , socialist have theres .. sheesh

Militias are just folks , just they act on what many of us think and worry about for the future and our families

and always wishing to be free , no matter who it is wanting them to not be free .. that bad ?





met some others on other trips , some i met online and caught up later , but never got to know em as well as the montana folks , i wish we could do similar here ..

i like strong god fearing people

i may not agree with them on everything ,

so?

God freedom respect honour pride of nation

are good things to base a friendship on

and even if they think i'm a crackpot on some things , they'll always allow me to have a say

is that not the truest democracy ?

now talking to them you also hear the other side ,

i saw pic's of their gatherings going back over the years , many where police officers in their day job and the surrounding states pretty much all the founding members of their SWAT type teams they formed where militia members but the late 90's saw a heavy persecution in employment ( government jobs and union from what i was told ) against militia members , based on so called militia's that where crime gangs and very neo nazi as well , NOT militia at all , and so called RACISM in the militia , ( i also got told by some black folks a couple militia type groups are racist but they way they tell me i also smell neo nazi there too, i trust what they tell me , just i dont associate any true Militia with national socialist ideals as they are opposed ideologies)

i have not seen distinct racism in any group i saw , i did hear grouches about , damn wet back , damn spic , damn N , and many of these folks are what i call "mixed culture" ? but when your reading the local paper and see some drunk illegal has killed another school kid and left the mother crippled , i dont think its racism in that regard

especially when the guys got a very spanish last name

the volenteer border patrol that USED to operate until the courts shut it down with help of the actual BP ( sheesh, hey did get it back going ?? ) are all volunteer patriots ( and many with spanish names but there families have been there longer than texas has been a state )

that sound racist ??

no its a attack on those best suited to resist whats to come , to make it un popular , to make it not PC , bad , and in time the sterotype will sink into the national psyche and no-one will care too muuch when the government had to storm them radicals and remove that arsenal of 40+ guns etc etc etc

like they did to gun owners here ...

but remember along with your second , is the militia's ,

they take away one , the other is gone too

think about that

[flboots]

The militias have to be careful, with all the terrorist laws in effect. Thats all obama's socialist government needs to declare martial law and take away all freedoms.

anyone group calling themselves a militia that hides their activities is probably not a group you want to join, my two cents

here is a link with some state militias
http://www.constitution.org/mil/mil_us.htm

[GLS_1956]

Militias are reserved for the states to form. Artical 1; Section 8 takes care of that

The Second Admendment reserves the RIGHT of the of the People to be armed. But not to form militias.
