We are already members of a Militia under U.S. Law.
The United States Reserve Militia.
It started with the Militia Act of 1792?
Who is the Militia?
'...every "free able-bodied white male citizen" between the ages of 18 and 45 into a local militia company. (This was later expanded to all males, regardless of race, between the ages 18-54)'
And it continues to this day, as the Militia Act of 1903...
Who is the Militia?
This law repealed the Militia Acts of 1792 and organized the militia into two groups: the Reserve Militia, which included all able-bodied men between ages 17 and 45, and the Organized Militia, which included state militia (National Guard) units receiving federal support.
