[QUOTE="island1fox, post: 1284353, member: 4816"] More, Most people know that George Washington was speaking in front of Congress in 1790 --years prior to any Bill or Law regarding the Militia. Educated people can have different views and opinions about militias or armed citizens protecting their homes and families and that is a fair debate. In 1620 when the armed Pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock were they bound by a "Militia Act" of a country nor an act that did not yet exist ? When Paul Revere went on His famous ride --through small villages and towns --warning the people to grab their guns --because the British were coming ?? Militia or Armed civilians -living in Villages and towns ?? :likeit: Just watch "The Patriot" or "Last of the Mohegans" ---Armed civilians protecting Life and Liberty or Armed Militias ?? If the national grid was severely damaged and panic and lawlessness roamed the streets tomorrow---Would the local homeowners that take out their guns to protect Family and self --be Militia or well armed Citizens --capable and ready to defend themselves ?? ---a notion very foreign to most Liberals --who believe the Government can and always will be there for everything ! Sounds like George Washington was able to envision what the future would hold !!:smart: [/QUOTE]
