Let's pull the cover back on these independent militia movement's to see if they scurry for cover like the cockroaches they are.
The Militia movement is a paramilitary outgrowth of the independent survivalist, anti-tax and other causes in the patriot movement subculture in the United States.
"The militia movement is a right-wing movement that arose following controversial standoffs in the 1990s. It inherited paramilitary traditions of earlier groups, especially the conspiratorial, antigovernment Posse Comitatus. The militia movement claims that militia groups are sanctioned by law but uncontrolled by government; in fact, they are designed to oppose a tyrannical government. Adherents believe that behind the "tyranny" is a left-wing, globalist conspiracy known as the New World Order. The movement's ideology has led some adherents to commit criminal acts, including stockpiling illegal weapons and explosives and plotting to destroy buildings or assassinate public officials, as well as lesser confrontations."
"In 1903, the Militia Act of 1792 was superseded by the Dick Act, which established the National Guard system, and made a distinction between the "organized" and "unorganized" Militia, reflecting the attitude that the Powers that Be didn't want most of the people to get organized as independent militias, despite the support for universal military training from most U.S. Presidents up to the administration of Harry Truman."
"Frustrated by recent political setbacks, tea party leaders and some conservative members of the Oklahoma Legislature say they would like to create a new volunteer militia to help defend against what they believe are improper federal infringements on state sovereignty."

Of course the movement emerged after the government massacred people at Waco and Ruby Ridge, when the government was promising to steal liberty more (back in the 1990's was the strongest time for the gun control movement).
Of course if you research COINTELPRO, REX 84, Project Megiddo and some other items, you'd understand quite a bit of what theyw ere warning about was no consiracy theory nonsense at all.
Now regarding the Oklahoma issue: that's a bit different. The federal government has in fact given support by law to states forming state militias if they wish.
The change in 1903 away from the militia system in place since the 1790's was the result of imperialism and playing world's policeman, not the government being opposd to militias. Militias work fine for defense, but not for imperial agendas and being world's policeman. The law specifically allows for militias in the states. The federal CMP even promotes marksmanship amongst civilians with a very specific purpose in mind.
When I posted this I wondered how well the truth would play here.
Not to well it seems..............
It is one viewpoint. It is not necessarily "the truth". You certainly think highly of your own posts.
An individual could spend years studying militias yet you would like us to believe you have uncovered the "truth" in a couple of cut & paste paragraphs? Please.
One can no more group all militias in the US together than they can all churches in the US. Way too simplistic. Nice try......
