And FYI, the militia laws were about the formation and employment of State military forces. Those laws do not, in any way, advocate or condone private citizens taking up arms against the government. That is called insurrection, which the militia can be -- and has been -- used to suppress.

That was not the militia at the Bundy Ranch. It was an armed mob, and they were certainly not there to "aid the civil power." Just the opposite, they were there to prevent law enforcement agents from doing their job.

Mob or militia, they forced the over reaching feds to back down with their armed assault. It is too bad they were not at the Weaver fiasco and maybe Vicki, and Sammy Weaver would still be alive today.. He would have been 27 years old this year.https://law.jrank.org/pages/3562/Randy-W...fense.html Bundy and sons won their trial if you needed a little up date, as did Randy Weaver. The feds tried to give Weaver and friend the death sentence. Ironic how no government person was ever convicted after two innocent people were murdered by them. https://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-bun...story.html These are the exact misuse of federal powers and over reach the militia was suppose to guard against.
Like I have stated before, the 2ndA is about division of power, "whether people wish to exercise that right or not" is another story.
