the militia member is acting as an agent of the state.

Which is no longer considered "unorganized" and is part of the military.

You aren't even trying to make sense are you...

What are you talking about? Half the states have a State Defense Force or State Guard that is organized, well regulated, and NOT part of the military.

Note the discconect between the reading of Article 1, Section 8, and the reading of this part of the Code. According to him, there's no explicit restriction spelled out on the power to regulate commerce in the clause, so therefore there is none. This part of the code says nothing about "militia" - federal, state, local, organized, unorganized, well-regulated, badly-regulated, unregulated or otherwise, yet magically "well-regulated state militia" is all right there.
