When was the last time any of you were ever called to be in a miltia..the premise of the "right" anyway.

not weird at all, and look at the way goverment tries to run each and everythig it can. the USA is never more than 1 step away from a police state, and if it does become a police state then you will have exactly what nazi germany was in the 1930's and 1940's.

also, I went to a Wisconsin militia meeting 3 weeks ago.

Vermont was created by a private militia. Private militias are a right of the people.

Don't worry- we have

1. unemployment at 10%
2. record debt
3. record deficits
4. rising personal income taxes
5. rising corporate taxes
6. Obamacare taxes kicking in
7. stock market falling
8. record mortgage foreclosures
9. no private sector jobs created
10. $1 trillion wasted on failed stimulus
11. a radical lesbian on the Supreme Court
12. A botched management of the Gulf disaster
13. Obama suing Arizona
14. Obama threatening executive order amnesty
15. Iran has the bomb.



Gee, I guess gun rights is a small issue compared to all the screw ups this idiot has had. 2010 and 2012 will be a liberal bloodbath.

The Green Mountain Boys' main targets were not French or Native Americans.

Vermont was created by a bunch of land thieves who would have gladly taken the property into the British Empire rather than the United States.

There is no private militia any more. There is a National Guard.

SCOTUS pointed out years ago the National Guard is not the militia.

NY was the thief.

National Guard is not a militia. It replaced the militia.

NY won the legal case against the Governor of New Hampshire. The Green Mountain boys were just a bunch of land thieves and traitors who would have taken Vermont into the British Empire in a heartbeat.
