Remember the movie: Red Dawn? Anybody who hasn't seen this classic should definitely take the time to see this!

I'd forgotten about the USMC not being subject to the posse commitatus act. Excellent.

In Florida there are two provisions for the "militia." There is an organized militia, which refers to the national guard. There is the "unorganized militia" which consists of all able bodied males between the ages of 18 and 45 bearing their own arms. This group was called (unofficially) into action after Hurricane Andrew and it was never challenged by the other militia. They often worked together until order was restored and the cops got back on their feet.

The authority for the Florida milita to operate after Hurricane Andrew was found under 32USC109.

The militia still exists, it just isnt widely known..LOL

Last Friday I went and bought Red Dawn and The Day After, as an attempt to underhandedly prepare my 11 year old.
