I'll just take it as another snide remark from one of the "team" that does all it can to avoid real discussion.

It was a valid statement. Congress or the States to quell civil insurrection as defined in the constitution can only call up the Militia. That my friend means that those you call the "militia" that are going to conduct the next "revolution" are the insurrectionists that the constitutional Militia will quell.

I guess that by dissenting I'm suggesting some knuckle draggers are going to conduct a revolution? I wouldn't expect Congress to call up the militia today; I think we're way past that. Hypothetically speaking, what do we do if we find that the Feds (Congress) have become overbearing? Will the militia take a call from them or will the militia have to do what it can to go up against a large standing Federal force?
