The Dick Act established two classes of militia. The NG being one and the "unorganized militia" being the other.Because you do not seem to know what the unorganized militia is.I'm not aware of any N. Carolina militias that have been in continuous existence since 1792.North CarolinaThat's an interesting idea. Now, can you name a state that private militias are legal in?you don't allow tyrants sole authority over self-defense state or federalSo which states are private, non governmental approved militias legal in?and as always you're illinformedAnd you are an idiot.The people are the militia they are the last defense against tyranny of the democratsThe state of imagination of fanatical firearm fondlers. Elsewhere, the Constitution applies.Perhaps you can name a state where private militias are legal.
The U.S. Constitution and state laws use the term “militia” to refer to all able-bodied residents between certain ages who may be called forth by the government when there is a specific need; but private individuals have no legal authority to activate themselves for militia duty outside the authority of the federal or state government. The ... Second Amendment does not protect private militia activity, pointing to decisions from the U.S. Supreme Court in 1886 and 2008 making clear that the Second Amendment “does not prevent the prohibition of private paramilitary organizations.” ...All 50 states prohibit private, unauthorized groups from engaging in activities reserved for the state militia, including law enforcement activities.
That's why we have a second amendment
G.S. 127A-7 The unorganized militia shall consist of all other able-bodied citizens of the State and of the United States and all other able-bodied persons who have or shall declare their intention to become citizens of the United States, who shall be at least 17 years of age, except those who have been convicted of a felony or discharged from any component of the military under other than honorable conditions.

From Heller:
"...the militia is assumed by Article I already to be in existence. Congress is given the power to “provide for calling forth the militia,” §8, cl. 15; and the power not to create, but to “organiz[e]” it—and not to organize “a” militia, which is what one would expect if the militia were to be a federal creation, but to organize “the” militia, connoting a body already in existence, ibid., cl. 16. This is fully consistent with the ordinary definition of the militia as all able-bodied men. "
Essentially, the unorganized militia has always existed by definition.
It ONLY cover MALES 17-45. No one else. It also doesn't cover postal workers and a host of other exceptions
And Miller established that militia weapons CAN be regulated (machine guns etc.)
Personal protection was never part of the 2A until Scalia and his judicial activism in Heller
