Gun Control & RKBA

Agreed on potential of a modern version of the militia. The repeated anti-gunner statements about the 2nd being obsolete and based on muskets got me thinking about this aspect of the 2nd. The militia sure isn't the national guard in which the 'nation' part of it turns out to be any foreign nation stupid enough to have our oil under their ground.

A level of eyes and ears just below the police. Greatly enhanced training and credentials would have to be part of it and government support as any standards demanding more time and money would return us to rich white guys with guns protecting their own turf. Different levels of certification, but training and credentials would include communications and first responder, along with gun safety and legal issues.

My concern is that every CC that shoots a person for taking a grocery cart off of the parking lot or pulls a gun on a Sikh wearing a turban hurts gun rights and rightfully so. As with so many things, how you implement it can be the key.
