The vast, vast majority of gun owners cannot complete a tactical reload, have never fired a weapon under stress, cannot do a single pull-up, have never heard a shot fired in anger and haven’t been in a fist fight since the 5th grade, if ever. Not knocking these guys and gals, because their hearts are in the right place, but they are a LIABILITY not an asset in any type of engagement. Further, they’ll never leave the chair in front of their computer to do anything....

Militia’s have not changed since the Revolutionary War. Newer weapons, better equipment but still poorly trained.
