Remember that blurb about how the anti-gunners should stop using the argument that guns are only for the militia?
Well it looks like somebody didn’t get the memo defining what the militia even is. This was found through Sharp as a Marble…

From the woefully ignorant article…
The purpose of the Second Amendment, as affirmed by federal courts, was to make sure there were adequate arms available to the “well-regulated militia.” Since the various National Guard units now are armed by the federal government, the “right to keep and bear arms” argument has been rendered moot.
As I discussed in my previous post pretty much all capable citizens are part of the militia. Let us revisit that important excerpt from the United States code dealing with the militia…
(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.
Oh Fuck two strikes against that morons argument. First the National Guard is considered an independent entity of the militia, not a replacement. Second that pesky part about the unorganized militia which is composed of the citizens of the United States. Once again an anti-gunner has shown us the fact that they don’t understand the concept of logic.
I also have to point out this line from the article…
The Founding Fathers understood the rules of English grammar.
It’s a good thing they did because the person who penned (typed) this article sure doesn’t.
