We know you have alot of questions.
If your question is not answered here feel free to contact us.
01
The main purpose for reviving the Militia tradition is to fight official abuse and corruption? Have things really come to that?
Sadly, yes. Most people are blissfully unaware of how bad things have become, or prefer not to see it or think about it. But it is approaching the point where more and more of them will be unable to sustain their state of ignorance or denial. It would be better to act now before things get much worse. The longer we wait, the more likely that there will be violent conflict, and we really don't need another civil war.
02
Can you provide evidence of any of this?
YES! There is plenty of evidence. It is readily available for those who want to make a little effort to find it, like the home page of this site. We can direct you to much of it, but don't just take our word on it. do the reserch yourself. After you read some of it you will readily understand why it is now time to activate the Militia across the country.
03
Should I become active in a militia?
Do you have some free time? Would you like to meet some interesting people?
Would you like to send the message to Washington D.C. that Americans still run this country?

What goes on during a militia meeting?

05
Is a Militia a Political Action Group?
The distinction between a political action group organized to promote Constitutional government and a militia is the military orientation and a political orientation of the former. Both groups must work together in support of mutual goals. Individuals may participate in both. But, the militia prepare, train, and equip as a response group in fashion of minutemen of Concord and Lexington for the defense of self and community.Therefore, to be recognized as a militia unit, the organization should adopt a written code of conduct and organization, have a distinctive uniform or method of identification, and implement a training program to fulfill the "well-regulated" disciplinary requirement of the Second Amendment.
