“States are anticonstitutional and stopping military from forming or training.”
Outside of state’s highway patrols, rangers, and sheriff’s departments, the sttes also have the national guard.
The National Guard of the several states, territories, and the District of Columbia serves as part of the first line of defense for the United States. The state National Guard is organized into units stationed in each of the 50 states, three territories, and the District of Columbia, and operates under their respective state or territorial governor, except in the instance of Washington, D.C., where the National Guard operates under the President of the United States or his designee. The governors exercise control through the state adjutants general. Governors may call up the National Guard for active duty to help respond to domestic emergencies and disasters, such as hurricanes, floods, and earthquakes.
So the states have the latest addition of the militias right there. They just have to share it with Uncle Sugar on occasion.
