Regulated not Organized.
I currently belong to two militias- the Unorganized, per the Dick Act and the retired militia.
I won't get mad or fire away, I agree that licencing would be very effective, after the fact if nothing else. I just recognize it is not going to happen anytime soon so would rather focus on productive action that can be completed.
I also do disagree with the notion the we can just 'ignore' what ever part of the Constitution we happen to disagree with. If there really is such support, there is a process to Amend so the 2A could be repealed or amended. I might disagree with what comes out and be ready with an 'I told you so' but would accept it as legal.
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
