Just what is a militia in your opinion?

 

All able-bodies males between the ages of 17 and 45, plus former military up to age 64.  It isn’t really an opinion, but rather the actual legal definition.  See US legal code section 246 of title 10 and US legal code section 313 of title 32.  It really isn’t a bit complicated or subject to whimsical opinions on what arms necks of color need or should be allowed to have.  It’s the law.

 

 

>…The name suggests to me an organized group, like the Nat'l Guard…

 

The National Guard is part of the militia.  From US legal code section 246 of title 10:

 

(b)The classes of the militia are—

(1)

the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and

(2)

the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.

I was never part of the organized militia, but was part of the organized militia for 28 years.  You and John Clark were as well (I am assuming both are male.)  Now I am an ally of the militia.

 

 

  All we have are survivalists and the like.

Billw, are you not a survivalist?  What is a non-survivalist to be called?  A die-ist?  A deadist?  I am neither a die-ist or deadist but rather I am a survivalist.  I like survival.  I like life.  This would make me an alivist.

 

Life is good.  Therefore survival is good.  That makes me a survivalist neck of color, aged out of the militia but still an ally and willing volunteer trainer of militia should my services be called upon.
