Min, the current "militias" that make the FBI watch lists are radical anti-government groups. My cousins mostly belong to one.
His point (always difficult to figure out what that moron's point is, though) seemed to be that the militia in 1776 was held in higher regard. It was not. As Daniel Morgan told his "militia" at Cowpens... "just give me two fires boys...." and then it wouldn't matter if they ran away.
Two fires meant the one they started with and one reload. Effectively, Morgan was hoping they could stay on the field for something under a minute!
