That is nice. If you want to get really technical, neither Congress, or the states have followed what the Founders gave us. That is why it is broken on both sides.

So what is the solution? You do what you have to do in the state you are in. If you have to call it a neighborhood watch, then that is what it is. Dr Vieira knows it is jacked up.

Here is the best explanation:

“And how many in the ranks are actually undercover FBI agents? “

An unfortunate but necessary question given the holdover HusseinObama DoJ/FBI.

Doesn’t matter how patriotic or within your Constitutional rights you may be if you are swept up in the net by questioning FULL Federal government authority and power: “We have YOUR name.”

Can’t be afraid forever. There needs to be some level of organization, if for no other reason just to come into contact with others of like mind in your area if you have no one.

I’m sure the Nazi’s infiltrated the French resistance. But that doesn’t mean the resistance should not have attempted to exist and function.

Now we all can more identify with the risks our founding fathers took - risking life, liberty and property.

So he handed me $50, and told me to go get a hotel and come back the next day and try again.

That must have been a LONG TIME ago.

That has got to be back in the 70s or before.

Starting in the 80s you couldn’t get a hotel with cash. You had to have a credit card.

And in the 80’s you had to have a driver’s license and be 18 or older.

Unless of course you were renting by the hour.

All I could think of when I read the title was ROTC Summer Camp at Ft Riley KS in 1976.

They sound like the duck hunters down here.
Our guys hit their target on the fly.

Honestly, I thank God I’m one of them because I wouldn’t want to be against them.

In 1980, I was an office manager at the Census bureau and and every day, the enumerators came in at the end of the day, complaining to me about “your people”.

They sicced porch dogs on them, came out of their houses toting guns and just generally didn’t cooperate at all.

I laughed and asked them what was I supposed to do about it, because, even ~being~ one of them, I still sure as hell wouldn’t go stomping onto their property uninvited.

Even weirder, years after that, I had a persistent Census taker keep trying to get me to answer questions I knew were not allowed.

The last time she showed up at my fence, I was sitting on the front porch cleaning a 30.30 and had my two Dobes lying at my feet.

She started to say the same crap again and the two Dobes jumped up growling.

Sometimes the timing just works out perfect.

Never saw her again and in the 20-some years since, have never seen another Census taker.

/on “the list”

We need training. Threat assessment, tactics, psy-ops, recruiting, giving and following orders.

Isn't that odd! Some of the very things you need when playing paintball!
I doubt the overweight guy is going to be recruited.
Agility is pretty much a requirement in that game just like it is in a real war situation.
He can be on your team!

No, I don't mean running around with guns in a field, which is fine and important too but it’s just the tip of the training iceberg.
Paintball! They use pneumatic guns. You can run around the playing fields all day long with those.

Shall I go on exposing your inanity?

If you want your militia to get ahead of the game, simply borrow every little thing from the North Idaho Militia.

Also, in these modern times, "nerds" are going to play an essential role. Imagine the tactical advantage offered by drones (already proven against ANTIFA from what I've read), the advantage of communications and disinformation, and the advantages that may result from monitoring social media. ("SIGINT")

Has the chain of command been designated? Do you have insignias (or anything visual) to indicate rank?

Do you have LP/OPs? Have you identified your HQ? Is there comms between the LP/OPs and the HQ? (Is there backup, non-electronic comms? Hard-wired comms?). Have code words been identified to conceal communications and possibly provide disinformation?

Have serious roadblocks, with covering fire, been planned. Is there COMMS between the roadblocks and HQ (with visual backup COMMS)?

Have hard and soft cover been identified and/or prepared? Have booby traps been planned? Have the avenues of attack and "fatal funnels" been identified (and briefed to all?)?

Have "DEFCON" levels been identified? Have rules of engagement been defined for each DEFCON level? (DEFCON levels and ROE should be memorized by all.)

Has food and ammo been stockpiled?

Leadership should read and re-read Sun Tzu's "Art of War".

And understand small unit tactics, be ready to disappear when confronted by air power .. and drill .. drill .. drill.

I wrote about this and much more in my 2013 book titled "When There is No FEMA" (3 years of interviews and research went into that book). After writing it, I had come to hope that it would never be needed ... I was wrong.

Around here "get off my porch" says it all.
Woe to those who don't get off of it.

We do first try to be polite.

You make all wonderful points, and yes, we have thought of most of those, but the issue now is a struggle to change the mindset.That is kinda what this post was supposed to go. hehe

I was sold a long time ago. The old Guard guys are not giving up on he narrow idea that if they get on their hogs and ride to a site with their AR-15, the BS is going to stop. It's folly.

To be honest, we just arrived at the point where we need officers to solve problems and move the organization towards eventual solid constitutional ground. Well........some of us. The Old Guard refuses to study because if they did, they would have to admit they lived a lie their entire life, not getting past the 2nd amendment and being unable to tie it into Art I sect 8.

We are trying to move away from field ops in rural areas. The fight isn't going to be there. But there are many that still need to be convinced.

I’d like to hear your view. A target by whom?

Do you believe you will always be able to trust our Federal Government, or any government for that matter?   Several Federal Agencies already have been weaponized.   The FBI tried to destroy President Trump.   Given the political climate in our times now, is it not possible, is it not probable that the FBI has agents monitoring and gathering information within any so called militia group in the country?   Don't be so gullible.   FreeRepublic is being watched and has been going way back.
