The funniest thing is that the liberals maintain that the Amendment applies to militia members only and then turn around and want all militia members arrested.

Let's face it, a militia is not a standing army and can be a group of neighbors banding together and organizing for the purpose of neighborhood or local defense from foreign or domestic.

"Let's face it, a militia is not a standing army and can be a group of neighbors banding together and organizing for the purpose of neighborhood or local defense from foreign or domestic."

True. That is a militia. But the second amendment refers to a "well regulated state Militia" and the U.S. Constitution says that officers are to be appointed by the state.

Your militia would, therefore, not enjoy second amendment protection.
