Liberal gun grabbers claim that the 2nd Amendment right to keep and bear arms is a collective one.

Never mind that they don't like militias either.

... Even your state's Air National Guard, much less a private 'disorganized' militia that Timothy McVeigh would try to get started.

you forget the leftist view also includes onerous regulation to the point of de facto prohibition.

(in order to get a gun permit you must have approve from the government, in order to get approval from the government you must fust have a permit)

I’m referring to something more in line with the spirit of the constitution. A state militia that is beholden to the Governor and state assembly. Not a anti-government entity but one focused on the defense of the home state during a time of crises (as intended): http://www.cosdf.us/

I would never be a part of any organization that was anti-government.

I view the 2nd as a individual right and not a collective one. I’m just playing what ifs here.
