As a law-abiding citizen of this great country, I can form my own militia if I so choose, appoint myself colonel, enlist my friends as privates or PFCs, and we can run around the woods until we all keel over from heatstroke or heart attacks – whatever comes first. It’s all perfectly legal, at least for now.
We have the right to criticize our government. We can sit around the campfire at our secret militia base nursing our sore muscles and fire ant bites and talk about how Joe walks like a penguin, or how it would take Kamala a good 20 minutes just to tell you you’re on fire. It’s all perfectly legal and protected speech, at least for now.
We have the right to train with our firearms. We can draw from a holster, shoot while moving, practice CQB and send as much lead downrange as our bank accounts will allow. It’s all perfectly legal conduct, at least for now.
However, a new bill making its way through Congress known as the “Preventing Private Paramilitary Activity Act of 2024,” would make all of this illegal or at least suspicious enough to draw scrutiny from the feds. More importantly, it would paint a target on the back of every single American gun owner, which is the actual intent of this ill-conceived and extremely unconstitutional legislation.
To be clear, if Joe Biden ever signs this bill, the second he puts down his crayon the feds will flock to local gun ranges in numbers that will make it nearly impossible for actual members to find a place just to park. This bill would give them license to investigate anyone who trains with a gun in order to determine whether they’re a militia member – and don’t think for a second that they won’t.
The FBI recently investigated law-abiding Americans whose sole transgression was shopping at a Cabela’s or a DICK’s Sporting Goods. Evidently, the FBI, the country’s so-called premier law enforcement agency, wasn’t aware DICK’s stopped selling guns and ammunition eons ago. Nowadays, the most dangerous thing on their shelves is a pickleball paddle.
When the framers of the Constitution wrote the Second Amendment, militia membership was not only encouraged, it was required. All able-bodied men were instructed to own a firearm, powder and shot and to keep them clean and serviceable in the event they were ever needed. Now, under the guise that it might be militia-related, a handful of lawmakers are trying to criminalize firearm training – especially anything tactical. In my humble opinion, it is just another step toward their ultimate goal of total civilian disarmament.
The Bill
H.R.6981, the Preventing Private Paramilitary Activity Act of 2024, was sponsored by Congressman Jamie Raskin, a Democrat from Maryland who apparently has never taken a constitutional law class.
Raskin and co-sponsor Senator Edward J. Markey, (D-Mass.), said in a press release they introduced the bill to “hold individuals liable who directly engage in certain types of conduct, including intimidating state and local officials, interfering with government proceedings, pretending to be law enforcement, and violating people’s constitutional rights, while armed and acting as part of a private paramilitary organization.” (As an aside, there are already plenty of federal statutes on the books to address these types of crimes.)
The two lawmakers, of course, raised the specter of Jan. 6th to help sell their legislation.
“Private military organizations pose a threat not only to national security, but they also present a public safety problem that extends beyond any single state; for example, private paramilitary actors like the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers traveled across state lines on January 6th,” they said in the joint press release.
The bill defines a Private Military Organization – the authors’ new term for militia – as “any group of 3 or more persons associating under a command structure for the purpose of functioning in public or training to function in public as a combat, combat support, law enforcement, or security services unit.”
According to this overly broad definition, the private security teams established by churches, synagogues and mosques across the country could be classified as militias, as could dozens of other groups.
Like its definitions, the conduct the bill proscribes is overly broad, too. The legislation defines “dangerous conduct” as:
- publicly patrolling, drilling or engaging in harmful or deadly paramilitary techniques
- interfering with or interrupting government proceedings
- interfering with the exercise of someone else’s constitutional rights
- falsely assuming the functions of law enforcement and asserting authority over others
- training to engage in such behavior
What exactly are harmful or deadly paramilitary techniques? Does CQB qualify? How about movement? Could transitioning, malfunction drills or off-hand shooting lead to my arrest? How about plain ole punching holes in paper on a flat range? The authors don’t say. They would leave it up to federal agents and prosecutors to determine what violates the law. What could possibly go wrong …
Anyone who violates Raskin’s anti-militia bill could face fines and up to a year in a federal prison. Repeat violators could face up to two years. If the violation involves bodily injury there’s a five-year penalty. If a death occurs, the bill calls for a life sentence.
The authors also added a forfeiture clause to confiscate your guns: “Any person who violates subsection shall forfeit to the United States any property, personal or real, involved in, used, or intended to be used, in any manner or part, to commit, or to facilitate the commission of, the violation, or that constitutes or is derived from proceeds traceable to the violation.”
True Intent
Raskin’s legislation is an unconstitutional nightmare. The bill clearly violates the First and Second Amendments and would have a chilling effect on any organized firearm training. The normal banter about the Biden-Harris administration that almost always occurs during breaks in training classes would have to stop, lest it be misconstrued as a threat. Team training would have to end. Instructors, especially the tactical ones, would have to understand they are only one over-zealous prosecutor away from losing everything. This is all by design, of course. It’s exactly what Raskin and his ilk wanted when they sponsored this abomination of a bill.
Fortunately, the Founders left a few roadblocks for Jamie, Joe and Kamala: Freedom of Speech, Freedom of Assembly and, of course, our Right to Keep and Bear Arms.
Thomas Jefferson once said that the price of freedom is eternal vigilance. Nowadays, in terms of our civil rights, he could not have had better precognition.

When the framers of the Constitution wrote the Second Amendment, militia membership was not only encouraged, it was required.
When the framers of the Constitution wrote the Second Amendment, they had just finished LIBERATING a Nation, not just coming back from a deer hunt…
Damn straight, and the first battle of the American Revolution (in Massachusetts, I mean good Lord think about that now) was because the British were gonna seize guns and powder in Concord.
“…I mean good Lord think about that now) was because the British were gonna seize guns and powder in Concord.”
I make a point of that whenever a Leftist Scum ™ starts getting all mouthy about how they are gonna start grabbing guns, and begin laughing when I remind them over 80 percent of the troops who will be getting their hands dirty doing it don’t vote the way they do.
It’s real simple, Leftists, don’t start any trouble, there won’t be any trouble… 😉
This used to be true. But our military has been infected with those types who would turn their own mother in for an accidental violation of some abstract law. Military leadership is chock full of idiots and DEI pushers. It wouldn’t surprise me that if a world war broke out tomorrow, half our military would look for an excuse like anxiety to opt out. Men have been effeminized in the last 20 years or so and most of the battle age recruits are a bunch of hussies. There are still quite a few real fighters, but they are outnumbered by the effeminate ones. Add that to poor leadership that is more worried about DEI than real performance, and you have a recipe for disaster.
The Brits seized the arms and powder in Williamsburg, VA.
Yes, one summer long ago I visited that magazine and the humidity was insane, I felt sick because of the heat.
AND to arrest two Patriots, Sam Adams an John Hancock, to be charged with some made up crime they did not commit, to be “transported” to England, where they never had been before, for trial, near certain conviction (no “jury of your peers” nor ability to present your own witnesses nor examine theirs) and subsequent hanging by the neck until dead from a gallows on the London Bridge. Anyone who knows our Constitution will recognise the source of at least four of our Bill of Rights articles.
Yeah, 19th April 1775 is a VERY important date for all to remember and understand.
A little good news :

Every Able-Bodied Male of fighting age (18 to 45) is Automatically a member of The Militia per United States Code.
Title 10, §311. Militia: composition and classes
(a) The militia of the United States consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, except as provided in section 313 of title 32, under 45 years of age who are, or who have made a declaration of intention to become, citizens of the United States and of female citizens of the United States who are members of the National Guard.
(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.

They demand we have mandatory training but hate the NRA and now want to remove one of the options for training.
I just can’t keep up with these clowns.

Militias are necessary for a Free State and Constitutionally protected. On the other hand History Confirms Gun Control is a necessary ingredient for Slavery, Genocide, etc. Inarguably Gun Control must be abolished or the deranged democRat Party will see to it History repeats itself.
And History will immediately indict THEM and seek them out for justice. Maybe THEN they will suddenly remember about a few of the Articles of our Bill of Rights, that bit of the Sheepskin they now want to erase but then will cling to as if for dear life. Because that’s exactly what WILL be at stake for them.
Would legal loophole be to form a club and conduct regular competition?
And another possible loophole is to eliminate any “command structure” in your local militia since their bill requires a “command structure”.
publicly patrolling, drilling or engaging in harmful or deadly paramilitary techniques
falsely assuming the functions of law enforcement and asserting authority over others
training to engage in such behavior
Damn, THAT POS would make any type of “armed” self-defense a crime… Never get to the floor for a real vote…
“Damn, THAT POS would make any type of “armed” self-defense a crime… Never get to the floor for a real vote…”
Civil War 2.0 was about the intention of abolitionists to use simple legislation to modify a constitution that did not delegate power to the central committee to perpetuate, or eliminate, slavery. Southern Democrats learned from defeat, and now are using abolitionist tactics to gain and keep elective power.
“Southern Democrats… “
Do tell…
Here’s some interesting information regarding the legality of private militias:
“Does the Second Amendment protect private militias?
No. In fact, the Supreme Court decided in 1886—and repeated in 2008—that the Second Amendment “does not prevent the prohibition of private paramilitary organizations.” District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U.S. 570, 621 (2008) (citing Presser v. Illinois, 116 U.S. 252 (1886)).
Is it legal to act as a private militia in Florida?
No. All 50 states prohibit private, unauthorized militias and military units from engaging in activities reserved for the state militia, including law enforcement activities. Some, including Florida, also prohibit paramilitary activity during or in furtherance of a civil disorder. Florida’s laws are described below:
Florida Constitution: The Florida Constitution forbids private military units from operating outside state authority, providing that “[t]he military power shall be subordinate to the civil.” Fla. Const. art. I, § 7.
Florida Statutes
Prohibition on private military units: Florida law makes it illegal for groups of people to organize as private militias without permission from the state. Fla. Stat. §870.06 provides that it is a misdemeanor for any “body of persons, other than the regularly organized land and naval militia of this state [and] the troops of the United States,” to “associate themselves together as a military organization for drill or parade in public with firearms, in this state, without special license from the Governor” and approval by the local government.“

fyi
Private army’s were totally supported by the democrat party. They were called the Klu Klux Klan. And there were others. Smaller in size who supported the democrats as well.
NONE of what you quoted bars people from forming PRIVATE militia associations for training purposes, etc.
It bars them from “engaging in activities reserved for the state militia, including law enforcement activities.”
So, if Sam and Doug get a group of people together to train and drill or whatever, and decide to call themselves the Possum Brigade, they can do whatever the heck they want on PRIVATE LAND, as long as they DON’T show up at the next Antifa camp out and act as either ‘Militia’ to help quell riots, etc. or undertake activities to aid in the furtherance of (a) civil disorder.
Never assume it will never get to the floor. Slime, applied to politicians, easily allows many things to slip through unnoticed… by intention.
As a stand-alone bill it will have to get through a Republican majority committee before it can get a floor vote then it would still require 67 votes in a RINO heavy Senate, but I don’t believe they can get 17 Republicans to vote for something that is this blatantly unconstitutional…
IE the Hughs amendment.
“blatantly unconstitutional… “
Florida passed this sort of thing decades ago:
Fla. Stat. § 790.29
Current through Chapter 352 of the 2023 Legislative Session
Section 790.29 – Paramilit
“Whoever teaches or demonstrates to any other person the use, application, or making of any firearm, destructive device, or technique capable of causing injury or death to persons, knowing or having reason to know or intending that the same will be unlawfully employed for use in, or in furtherance of, a civil disorder within the United States, is guilty of a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.
(b) Whoever assembles with one or more persons for the purpose of training with, practicing with, or being instructed in the use of any firearm, destructive device, or technique capable of causing injury or death to persons, intending to unlawfully employ the same for use in, or in furtherance of, a civil disorder within the United States, is guilty of a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.
(4) Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to prohibit any act of a law enforcement officer which is performed in connection with the lawful performance of his or her official duties or to prohibit the training or teaching of the use of weapons to be used for hunting, recreation, competition, self-defense or the protection of one’s person or property, or other lawful use.“
And that first sentence is very interesting:
“Whoever teaches or demonstrates to any other person the use, application, or making of any firearm“
Third-degree felonies in Florida will entitle you to a 5 year stay at Tallahassee’s expense.
And that first sentence is very interesting:
“Whoever teaches or demonstrates to any other person the use, application, or making of any firearm“
That’s not the first sentence; you truncated it and by doing so, changed its meaning.
* Whoever teaches or demonstrates to any other person the use, application, or making of any firearm, destructive device, or technique capable of causing injury or death to persons, knowing or having reason to know or intending that the same will be unlawfully employed for use in, or in furtherance of, a civil disorder within the United States, is guilty of a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084. *
The Florida bill defines “civil disorder” as: “a public disturbance involving acts of violence by an assemblage of three or more persons, which disturbance causes an immediate danger of, or results in, damage or injury to the property or person of any other individual within the United States.”
The purpose of the Florida bill is to prevent organizations such as ANTIFA from committing unlawful acts — not, as the proposed unconstitutional House bill would do, to “ban private militias.”
“knowing or having reason to know or intending that the same will be unlawfully employed for use in, or in furtherance of, a civil disorder within the United States“
You mean like every conservative calling for a Civil War 2.0?
miner. You guys on the fascist left are pushing hard for a civil war. Doing all you can to force it.
When we point this out suddenly the coming war is our fault.
“You guys on the fascist left are pushing hard for a civil war.“
Nope, the facts show conservatives are calling for Civil War because their seditionist-in-chief is being held to account:
“In Georgia, state Sen. Colton Moore warned politico-turned-podcaster Steve Bannon that any prosecution of Trump would lead to a likely civil war. “I don’t want to have to draw my rifle,” Moore said. Concerningly, Moore also seemed to imply that Georgia state troopers would be willing participants in any effort to bust Trump out of jail. That last bit may be fantastical thinking on Moore’s part, but he’s hardly alone.
Former Georgia Republican gubernatorial candidate Kandiss Taylor also lent her voice to the chorus of war cries, describing Trump’s indictments as “treason” and “a hijacking of our country,” telling podcaster William Wallis, “This is war, and I hope and pray it gets resolves before we use guns…we’re at war right now, a war for our freedom.”
https://thehill.com/opinion/campaign/4187490-republicans-just-cant-stop-calling-for-civil-war/amp/
Meanwhile, American citizens serving in our jurisprudence system will continue to hold these traitors to account, and the conservative threats of violence will do nothing but strengthen our resolve to preserve America’s self governance under the constitution.
Donald Trump and the extremists are ‘playing poker on a losin’ night’.

I think you found the most unheard of candidate for GA Governor. Living in GA, the last two elections for the position have been between the incumbent, Brian Kemp, and his lackluster opponent who still owes back taxes after two multimillion (multi hundred million) campaigns named Stacey Abrams. Abrams lost the first time, and refused to submit. She got smacked down the second time and lost by a larger margin. And the democrats abandoned her dumb asss shortly thereafter wasting a few hundred million on her. Taylor’s campaign lasted about 8 minutes.
H0m0sexu@ls have always been against 2A education. I know saying that gets me call a h0m0ph0be.
But that’s OK, I’ve been called a n#gger before too, that’s just the price I pay for speaking the truth. And there are a lot of people who need to get over being called names.
H0m0sexu@ls are @theists and are soci@ list pr0 gressive in their orient@tion. They are the enemies of liberty.
Tom Ammiano is a proud h0mosexual. And he got himself elected to the SF school board. His stated goal was to destroy the rifle teams and 2A education in the public school system there.
And he did just that.
Are there g#y people and @theists who actually believe in liberty??? Yes there are, and there are very, very few of them.
There was actually a huge contingent of gays who were pro Trump. The gays are not happy with the direction of their LGBT organization (I don’t feel the need to reinforce the stupidity of the rest of the letters) The gays actually feel betrayed by the organization which has been hijacked by these trans freaks. You wanna be gay and live a very susceptible life where aids and HIV are potential realities, by all means go for it. My brother in law did, and he’s dying from aids. All his meals have to be blended because he can’t swallow food. Not a chance I’d be willing to take to thumb my nose at nature.
knowing or having reason to know or intending that the same WILL BE UNLAWFULLY EMPLOYED for use in, or in furtherance of, a civil disorder within the United States, is guilty of a felony of the third degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082, s. 775.083, or s. 775.084.
The bill in question, Minerva, would make it illegal to go to the range with two of your friends, it would also make it illegal to intervene in an ongoing shooting because THAT is the function of law enforcement AND if YOU were under attack taking fire it would be illegal to take cover while returning fire (which would also be illegal) or take any other action which could be perceived as a tactical move… Nice try but not today… OBTW: it is still legal to privately manufacture, possess AND use a homemade (non-serialized) firearm in the state of Florida for LEGAL purposes… You should have also noted the last part of the last paragraph… “Nothing contained in this section shall be construed to prohibit teaching of the use of weapons to be used for hunting, recreation, competition, self-defense or the protection of one’s person or property, or other LAWFUL use.“ Do you never tire of looking the fool…

Yep. Good ol’ 69er, the crotch surfing typical libidiot.
Can’t support their argument without selective editing, or as is otherwise known, ‘Lying by Omission.’
Its high time every American who believes in the Constitution and what this Country stands for simply says enough is enough and simply disregards any of these freedom destroying laws conjured by the Democrats. They don’t have the resources to enforce them and the American Public needs to decide whether they fight back or acquiesce. There are far more of we the people and military and police who will not support them than there are those who will. It should be obvious by now that all these measures have nothing to do with safety but only control of the American People. Wake up everyone before it is too late particularly those “useful idiots” who keep voting for these fools.
Is every high school and college rifle team now an illegal “militia”?
Do the Boy Scouts of America have to stop training kids in riflery at Boy Scout Camp?
Are karate dojos now “militias”? Karate is a deadly martial art, after all, and so are Tae Kwon Do, Kung Fu, and other martial arts.
What about fencing? Swords can kill, so are fencing teams “militias”? What about Renaissance Faire LARPing with medieval swords? Is the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) a “militia”?
Lawmakers clearly haven’t thought this through!
Are Medieval Times actors/employees a “militia”? They train with swords and lances!
Are high school wrestling teams “militias”? Wrestling can kill (mostly if you break the rules and strangle someone or body slam them headfirst).
What about cowboy action shooting? Is my local SASS club (Single Action Shooting Society) a “militia”? The weapons are certainly deadly: lever-action rifles, double-barreled shotguns, and single-action revolvers, and we train to shoot super-fast and deadly-accurate against simulated cowboys and villains. Are SASS clubs illegal “militias”?
I’m a science fiction fan who often goes to Sci-fi conventions.
There are always recruiters there, in paramilitary uniforms, recruiting new members for Starfleet Command, various other sci-fi military organizations (e.g. the U.S. Colonial Marines from Aliens), the Saber Legion (lightsaber dueling), Imperial stormtroopers, etc. (I forget all the names, as there are too many Star Trek, Star Wars, and other sci-fi affiliated “militias” to keep track of). Are all those futuristic sci-fi “militias” going to be illegal? Those lightsabers can injure an opponent if they’re not wearing a helmet and heavy padding, and anything that can injure can theoretically kill, too.
I’m a member of The Saber Legion, so I trained in lightsaber dueling (although I haven’t been active since the leader of our local TSL “militia” died from COVID at age 31). Is The Saber Legion an illegal “militia”?
is every high school and college rifle team now an illegal “militia”…
They would be under this bill…
This bill is basically rewriting the Constitution removing rights to assemble, associate, bear arms in public, engage in self-defense and revokes the necessity of a “well-regulated militia” (seeking cover in a gunfight would be considered a “military” type action) (firing on an armed aggressor would be considered a police type action) (going to the range with two friends would be considered a “militia” type activity)… Big time overreach, no way it passes, if it did SCOTUS would slap it down…
Thinking that a bill needs to be proposed that would do the following ; #1 Make it a death by firing squad to any government infiltrator that spies on citizens exercising their constitutional right , be it training , target practicing , or constitutional carrying of a firearm etc. # 2 Swift removal from office and loss of citizenship and forced deportation of any one in an office that is elected or funded by taxpayers that infringes on citizens constitutional rights that supports or originates and or lobbies for a bill or it’s passage that will infringe on said constitutional rights. This would include forfeiture of any benefits including retirement payments. This is how you counter the Marxist idealogy in our country.
I was thinking. Does fanning a single action revolver make it a machinegunm?
That describes a whole chunk of the offerings at Sig Academy once you get past the intro courses.
Is Sig engaged in “militia training”?
This is worth a hearty kek:
interfering with the exercise of someone else’s constitutional rights
It’s okay to interfere with your rights because you might interfere with somebody else’s. So if that’s the case why doesn’t the gov just offer you a job interfering with people’s rights? Problem solved.
“Any group of 3″… ROFL!! This is militia for them?
You can see that target is elsewhere.
any group of moa.
I’m interested in learning which RINO’s are in favor of this?
Looks like all Dem co-sponsors…
Dems want that civil war mentioned in the last article. That’s all there is to it. They think the F16s and nuclear weapons will put us all down.
the F16s and nuclear weapons will put us all down.
that’s what THEY think. Reality is somewhat different: those large complex systems require large numbers of skilled AND intelligent people, well trained, to work in close concert to make them function. As things fall apart, as they will, sufficient numbers of such individuals will be increasingly difficult to muster and keep their skills well honed to function.
Meanwhile millions of skilled individuals can easily move about to strategic positions where just a few rounds from Grandpa’s old bolt action hunting rifle can make quite a mess of their “systems”. In short order. And if THAT handful get taken out, there are 999.999 more of them just up the road who can and will quickly step up to replace them.
AKA, the ‘Militia of One,’ as mentioned in the short short story “BRACKEN: WHAT I SAW AT THE COUP”
Hmm..
Lessee if THAT gets ‘moderated..’
These tyrants are exactly the reason we need the 2A and the right to build/engage in militias.
“The True Intent of the Democrats’ Anti-Militia Bill Is to Infringe on Firearms Training”
More like a secondary benefit. My devious brain, cultivated from being a child of the 1960s, is the bill is designed to make militias illegal so that the first clause in the Second Amendment eliminates any “need”, or rational for militias at all.
Thus, according to the anti-gun thugs, the Second Amendment is effectively repealed without all the mess of an actual Amendment to the Constitution. If “the militia” can no longer exist, the Second Amendment can no longer be justified.
Yup. That one mixed in with the comment from I Didn’t Realize….
Make all of those ‘other groups’ activities illegal (but selectively enforce it) and voila! BTW, wouldn’t a year in prison already make someone a felon and thereby lose their gun rights anyway? Not that it matters to Raskin and his fellow tyrants. Any excuse to go after gun owners is of course part of their game.
“interfering with the exercise of someone else’s constitutional rights”
so giggle, face plant, finsta and the 9th circuit first.
so, kyle was a one man militia?
The end results say ‘Yes”.
Notice how all them tigers in the ss/antifa quit showing their ass after Kyle stepped up?
indeed. And not only in Henoa=sha. Has anyone else hapened to notice that within days of Kyle’s being assaulted and coming out on top, the rioting across the nation all but ended? I think this happened BECAUSE he stood his ground and had a very positive outcome (and their side a very BAD one.. two deaths, one more out of action). It put a different spin on reality for them. With the one success, there was the example and encouragement from one young “kid” that standing up for what is right CAN have some signficant results. His subsequent acquittal confirmed the positive side of his stand. The grave confirmed the negative side of the equation for millions more. The equation was suddenly and radically altered.
Just wait as we approach November. Those cockroaches will surface as the Dems ‘Brownshirts” attempt to disrupt the elections and scare Repubs from voting.
BWAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!! You nailed it bro! It was rough on Kyle but it worked out…
Still is, from where I’m looking. Kyle squashed one uprising, and the other side hasn’t managed to stage another attack on our nation.
We need to send Kyle to the border!
a one man wrecking crew is more like it
The inclusion of “interfering with the exercise of someone else’s constitutional rights” in this law would put the authors of this bill in violation of their own statute.
thankyou.
Yeah—I wish. But then again, I also wish all politicians would just fucking honor their oath to the Constitution.
So where’s the carve out for those groups (hint: lefty-leaning groups like Occupy! BLM, etc.) that think correctly? I can’t imagine this legislation is meant to hamper their patriotic activities!
Hidden in the fine print on page 962, to be paperclipped after reading of the Bill but before the final vote.. (That will not happen, this POS will never leave Jim Jordans Judicial Committee)…
its too late
theres already too many:
1 sof dudes that came home from too many wars
over the last 20 years that are all trained up
2 of everybody else that went to thunder ranch
and every other place in america just like it multiple times over the last decade
when cw2.0 goes hot
theres going to be 10x more of those folks
and they will be 10x more motivated
than the members of the us active and reserve military
that will be willing to actually open fire on them
bet everything you own on it
Whoops gotta keep the links moderated
While the fed side awaits moderation the military especially army is increasingly unable to meet recruiting quotas especially in combat arms. To be frank less concerned about the government and more concerned about what may be lurking on either end of our borders with maps of critical infrastructure chokepoints.
Lol, you’re forgetting the airsoft larpers running around doing what amounts to force on force training and tactics every weekend. There are the players and then there are the guys that actually use it as a training tool. And they compete.
Does anyone here think this BS will be used against the cartels already operating here, or do y’all think this shit is actually sponsored by those forces through the usual channels of corruption?
Selective Enforcement
Same can be said about BLM, ANTIFA

It’s all good — Hank Johnson has signed on!
I’m concerned
“Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.”
It’s dead, Jim.
“Referred to the House Committee on the Judiciary.”
“It’s dead, Jim.”
Which is a victory for gun grabbers, in and of itself.
enh. respect, but enh.
“enh. respect, but enh.”
Losing a battle of gun control is a win for gun grabbers. The loss is used to “fire up the base”, and increase funding “for the cause”. The same seems not to work, the other way round; a loss is a discouragement to continue.
The fact the the Dems have even filed something like this tells you all you need to know about these progressive sh!ts! They are very afraid of everyday Americans who are fed up to their eyeballs with there arrogance and entitlement sense in relation to ruling us!! This is exactly why the Founders have given us, per their own writings, the ability to get rid of them and start again by any means possible. The Covid lockdowns was the beginning of the end for these elites and they know it which is why they are desperately trying to rob us of our heritage, our history and our rights!! We owe it to all those who came before us and shed their blood to preserve this country to take it back for our kids and their futures!!!
and my sorry state wants to mandate that I go pay for and GET training to get a new Mother May I Go Buy a Gun card. Of curse, they are now fighting over WHO will build and supply the training, the requirements of it, and the outrageous cost they will inflict upin us. And to think ten years ago I could show up at a gun show, lay cash on the table, and walk out with anything short of a full auto machine gun that struck my fancey All legally.
Ten years ago??? I don’t think so, Man. Machine gun have been highly regulated since the 80s.
“…anything short of a full auto machine gun…”
Ha, ha…reading comprehension is important. My bad, Tionico. That’s what I get for posting after traveling through several time zones.
Agreed for the most part (state dependent).
And don’t forget those super dangerous paintball armies! Kids playing lazer tag, squirt gun fights hell snowball wars are hell! That rascally Raskin. What a fukkin rat.
Is it wrong to hope that cancer wins?
Rumors of war consistently writes from a ultra far right point of view. They claim to be truth and fairness. B.S. they write from a Russian point of view in an attemp to damage our democracy.
Not worried about this one, introduced by a couple of Communists and will be supported by their fellow travelers and the usual suspects of the left. FJB would sign it but it will never land on his desk.

Total trolling post. ANYTHING by that moron Raskin is going NOWHERE. The little twit is way overdue for a tar/feather appointment. None available iin Maryland?
Don’t worry, “they” will make sure that children and adults, get a thorough sex education in the public school systems.
Raskin is incandescent with loxism.
His Lymphoma must have metastasized to his brain…
They been after the militia’s for a long time.
If memory serves me correct they were trying to make it illegal to wear camouflage clothes.
I figured as much with the Texas border thing. I’d reckon if your caught with over x amount of emu and a gunm in a vehicle it will be against the law.
The way that guy wrote up his wish infringement, if you have a meeting in your house the feds could take it.
Like drugs and poached deer.
Where is this Freedom I hear about ?
It’s free if you can buy it is what I’m seeing.
The author makes a common mistake. It is incorrect to suggest that just because the feds pass any old law, that it makes a prescribed activity illegal.
The Supremacy Clause of the Constitution says only laws pursuing the Constitution are legal and judges are bound by that standard.
In this case, laws making it easier to form and operate a local militia would be legal. The law Congress is considering is a usurpation and treasonous. And thus it is null and void.
NO, CONGRESS, YOU SHOULDN’T (AND CAN’T) BAN ARMED, GROUP SELF-DEFENSE.
Meme checks out — misspelled word. 🙂
I guess 40 ounce is a member of the milita-tas…
Urapuss Miner49er and .40 cal Booger ain’t.
Abbott: Much of America is standing against Biden on his open border. (my note: Biden is exactly the lawless tyrant the founders of this country warned against remaining in power and one of the reasons we have the Second Amendment to defend against such a tyrant. There has never been, since our founding, such a lawless tyrant as this in the office of president.)
Americans are ‘watching the destruction’ of their country: Border crisis worsens.
I’m sure that law will work as well as the one on illegal immigration or snorting cocaine
And murder… armed robbery… rape… assault… auto theft… etc…
First they claim the 2A says you have to be in a militia to keep and bear firearms. Then they say “Oh, by the way, you can’t be in a militia.”
Gary — thread winner! You nailed it in a few words.
Dangerous conduct, like… “interfering with the exercise of someone else’s constitutional rights.”
So… what the government does every single day. I guess they don’t like competition.
The bill is one long overdue as the Far Right Paramilitary Lunatic Fringe are the very groups of people who form militia’s. The are the incarnation of Hitler’s Brown Shirt street thugs who terrorized Germany before Hitler came to power.
The Paramilitary Lunatic Fringe are racists, xenophobes’, bigots and religious fanatics who want to establish a Christian Caliphate and a utopian all white society which will only give Constitutional Rights to the Stormtrooper’s under a Trumpite Dictatorship.
The Paramilitary Lunatic Fringe have too long terrorized minorities, voters, and law abiding citizens.
Show me the difference between Hitler’s henchmen and the Proud Boys or Oath Keepers, there is none, as they are one and the same with the same sadistic warped mentality.
You’ve claimed to be SS/antifa. So you should also go to jail if this law is passed.
Fuck you and the horse you rode in.
what do so many people have against my horse?
How does Antifa fit into this? They definitely should be listed. Also, the Ancinet & Honorable Artillery Company in Massachusetts. They still do their annual officer installation on Boston Common.
You mean like the New Black Panthers “guarding” voting locations dressed in black and wielding Billy Clubs.. or the Not Fucking Around Coalition (NFAC) the black nationalist militia, part of the militia movement in the United States. The group that advocates for black liberation and separatism. Oh wait, aren’t they MINORITIES running around trying to intimidate White People? Just STFU you moron…
The Second Amendment protects TWO rights. The right to keep and bear arms AND the right of citizens to form militias.
banding together in times of trouble…especially when duly constituted authority is notably absent…is an American tradition…this seems aimed at groups with formal structure rather than those that spring up out of necessity….
This can also apply to railfans (people interested in trains) who often are members of railfan groups that also disseminate the 800-phone numbers to contact dispatchers when a grade crossing is blocked. (The crossings usually have such numbers posted on the crossbuck posts but not always.) Since incidents like washouts and fallen trees happen everywhere many of us carry those numbers about, This bill would actually make us railfans ALL illegal militia members.
FL legislation on the table to lower the age to purchase firearms from FFLs to 18, another FU to federal “law”…
