Militia

These are not "dangerous", "anti-government", "militant", "outsiders" but Americans protesting abuse by federal agencies that have from time to time over stepped their authority and damaged the lives and property of good law abiding Americans.

I am moving the bulk of this article to the The Occupy Refuge Movement because this is not much different than the Occupy Wall Street Movement when you really look at what is happening and the reason these Constitutionalist are acting. You can also find detailed information about the Hammond situation at our webpage here.

Who is the Militia

Amendment II

"A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed."

"The Second Amendment has most recently been interpreted to grant the right of gun ownership to individuals for purposes that include self-defense. At first it was thought to apply only to the Federal government, but through the mechanism of the Fourteenth Amendment, it has been applied to the states as well." https://www.law.cornell.edu/constitution/second_amendment

"MILI'TIA, noun [Latin from miles, a soldier; Gr. war, to fight, combat, contention.
