The Militia - According To District of Columbia v. Heller

This video provides a more in-depth look at the Militia as discussed by the Supreme Court of the United States in 2008:

District of Columbia v. Heller (2008)

This video examines the "Militia" using a two column chart examining the "Militia" in "order by time" and in "order by nature".

In short, the "Militia":

1. Is preexisting and is simply all able bodied males of "The People".
2. Bring the same commonly held arms suitable for self-defense as the "The People".
3. Is NOT a standing army or the "Military".
4. Acts as an obstacle to domestic insurrection, foreign invaders, tyrants and tyrannical governments.

Congress may federalize a "subset" of the "Militia" and train them further to turn them into a more effective fighting force and arm them as it sees fit. It is with the "federalized" subset of the "Militia" that one MIGHT see a militia that bears military arms.

History has shown, as noted by the Supreme Court of the United States, that Tyrants will disarm "The People" in order to disarm the "Militia".

The video finishes by examining commonly heard "Pro-2nd Amendment" and "Anti-2nd Amendment" arguments, analyzing them and tearing them down.
