Militia

Minutemen were private colonists who independently organized to form well-prepared militia companies self-trained in weaponry, tactics and military strategies from the American colonial partisan militia during the American Revolutionary War.

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

So what this is saying is that without the Fourteenth Amendment the second amendment has nothing to do with the average American who was not a party to the Constitution.

The Second Amendment does not grant the people the right to have military type rifles because the Amendment was not granting rights.

What it did was forbid the federal government of the United States from infringing on the individuals right to bear arms including the right to have military weapons.

The people have a natural right to defend themselves as individuals and as communities. It is not only foreign threats but even domestic threats. If people are expected to "support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic” it is reasonable to expect them to have the right to "support and defend the community and themselves "against all enemies, foreign and domestic".

We should always remember people were created by God and the government was merely created by the people. So the people's rights do not originate with the government. It is the governments' rights that originate with the people. The peope may grant more and more power to government but that is a most dangerous game. Power corrupts.

There were clear examples of the people needing to defend themselves from elements of government power or their overreach back then and even in our modern century. Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot and many others disarmed the population and wreaked havoc and horrors upon the people killing countless millions.

• "To Conquer a Nation, First Disarm its Citizens" Adolph Hitler

Did Hitler really make this exact statement? Of course not because he spoke German. Hitler did say "The most foolish mistake we could possibly make would be to allow the subject races to possess arms. History shows that all conquerors who have allowed their subject races to carry arms have prepared their own downfall by so doing. Indeed, I would go so far as to say that the supply of arms to the underdogs is a sine qua non for the overthrow of any sovereignty. So let’s not have any native militia or native police."

There is no doubt that Hitler wanted to do away with the "native militia" although he lifted arm restrictions for members of the "National Socialist German Workers' Party" (NAZI). It is also clear that Hitler wanted to disarm the Jews with the 1938 German Weapons Act just as liberals today want to disarm conservatives.

All the bills and laws proposed by the government will effectively disarm the law-abiding people of America and leave guns in the hands of those who are not.

The better the people are armed with military type rifles, including what people call assault rifles, the less likely there will be more holocausts. No one believes it is possible in their country yet history is ripe with examples of rampant abuse of power. Once the people no longer have the military ability to defend itself by forming a militia there is seldom any way to go back.

What is the Militia

The militia of consists of all able-bodied males at least 17 years of age and, under 45 years of age without taking an oath or signing up for anything.

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

The militia of a country are the able bodied men organized into companies, regiments and brigades, with officers of all grades, and required by law to attend military exercises on certain days only, but at other times left to pursue their usual occupations."

(b) The classes of the militia are—

(1) the organized militia, which consists of the National Guard and the Naval Militia; and

2) the unorganized militia, which consists of the members of the militia who are not members of the National Guard or the Naval Militia.

Title 10 U.S. Code § 312 - Militia duty: exemptions

(a) The following persons are exempt from militia duty:

(1) The Vice President.

(2) The judicial and executive officers of the United States, the several States, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Virgin Islands.

(3) Members of the armed forces, except members who are not on active duty.

However, such a person is not exempt from militia duty that the President determines to be noncombatant.

Conscription

The original idea of a militia does not include "conscription". It was merely the able body men of society who are willing to fight and work in its defense.

There has always been an elements of the world that want to argue conscription for what has been called a militia for thousands of years. Authoritarian habits are hard to break. But if the government can compel your service, then you are not "free", but under tribute. In a true or pure Republic, leaders are titular and have no power of conscription. It is true that during the American Revolutionary War, "some states", which were individual republics to lesser or greater degree, "sometimes drafted men for militia duty or to fill state Continental Army units", but the central government that was still forming did not have the authority to conscript, except for purposes of naval impressment. Even that was controversial since the power of impressment was one of the complaints in The Declaration of Independence.

We should also note that "landed" men -- that is to say, those with a freehold title in land -- could not be impressed because, by definition, they were "freemen". Even President James Madison and his Secretary of War James Monroe unsuccessfully attempted to create a national draft of 40,000 men during the War of 1812. This proposal was fiercely criticized on the House floor by Congressman Daniel Webster.

It should also be noted that even when there was limited draft powers, the power over a drafted soldier was extremely limited. Washington commented that the militia "provided for calling out men to repel invasion; but the powers granted for effecting it were so limited, as to be almost inoperative."

President James Madison advocated the controversial idea of government funding of Public Education, but only for the absolute indigent of society. The reason people objected to government funding of education was that it was literally drafting the labor of people to provide benefits to the needy of society.

• "He who receives the benefit should also bear the disadvantage."

Cujus est commodum ejus debet esse incommodum.

Because some states participated in some form of draft does not make it correct, nor does it grant universal power to draft people or their sons and daughters. That is an acquired power. If you have "conscripted fathers" making laws in your government, then you are likely subject to a draft.

The militia does not include members of the "armed forces" who are automatically exempt from the militia according to Title 10 U.S. Code § 312. In a government of, for and by the people, the militia can be an all-voluntary force that organizes itself. People in a community are expected to defend that community, even if they are not members. It is like good Samaritan laws. If someone is being attacked, murdered or robbed, and if you do not defend their right with means at your disposal, then you become complicit in the commission of the crime.

I am not saying that the government does not have power to draft today. But I am saying that it is not automatic nor universal. It is what the people have been doing and not doing that grants the corporate governments of the world the power to draft the people in military or civilian work projects. [see passports.]

Bob Basso as Thomas Paine, We The People talks bout unrepresentative representatives and gets people worked up and then with this rabble rousing speech with all kinds of pie in the sky demands that people will probably not get and then with bait out he promotes the switch [4:26]..."BRING BACK UNIVERSAL SERVICE". What is he talking about? The last time we had "UNIVERSAL SERVICE" we were slaves in Egypt. Time 6:35

Bob Basso pretending to be Thomas Paine pulls a dramatic bait and switch and most people who heard this completely missed it. At 4:26 he promotes the idea to "BRING BACK UNIVERSAL SERVICE". When did we ever have "UNIVERSAL SERVICE" in America or the United States?

The idea that the government should not be given the power to draft is a biblical rule laid down since at least Deuteronomy if not 1 Samuel 8. The video interview below was made in response to the error most people were making when they listened to the the Basso Tea Party video. They were missing the bait and switch sales pitch in the video. The Not My Tea Party, which is a part of the Slaves & Salvation Series exposes the insidious hidden message in the original Basso video.

HHC - Not My Tea Party, SSSeries: 4-10. An interview with Brother Gregory, a minister of His Church. Discussing Bob Basso's "We the People" organization, "UNIVERSAL SERVICE" in America and how the people need to hear what is actually being said. Time 7:11

Unfortunately the people of America already have at least one form of universal service through the Federal Employee Identification Number which is the Mark of the Beast. And because they are a surety for debt they cannot just opt out at this time. But there are things they can do to reverse the process including joining the Network.

• "Today, we need a nation of Minutemen, citizens who are not only prepared to take arms, but citizens who regard the preservation of freedom as the basic purpose of their daily life and who are willing to consciously work and sacrifice for that freedom." John F. Kennedy, the 35th President of the United States from January 1961 until his assassination in November 1963.

A well organized militia is simply people who are organized in their effort to protect and defend their neighbor's rights like Jesus said about attending to the Weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith which include caring for the needs of our neighbors and the widows and orphans of our society through Pure Religion in matters of health, education, and welfare. We are NOT to provide for the needy of society through the Covetous Practices and the men who call themselves benefactors but who exercise authority one over the other like the socialists do.

The Way of Christ was like neither the way of the world of Rome nor the governments of the gentiles who depend on those fathers of the earth through force, fear and fealty who deliver the people back in bondage again like they were in Egypt. Christ's ministers and true Christians do not depend upon systems of social welfare that force the contributions of the people like the corban of the Pharisees which made the word of God to none effect. Many people have been deceived to go the way of Balaam and the Nicolaitan and out of The Way of Christ and have become workers of iniquity.

The Christian conflict with Rome in the first century Church appointed by Christ was because they would not apply to the fathers of the earth for their free bread but instead relied upon a voluntary network providing a daily ministration to the needy of society through Faith, Hope, and Charity by way of freewill offerings of the people, for the people, and by the people through the perfect law of liberty in Free Assemblies according to the ancient pattern of Tuns or Tens as He commanded.

The modern Christians are in need of repentance.

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.

The Occupy Refuge Movement - this is not much different than the Occupy Wall Street Movement when you really look at what is happening and the reason these Constitutionalists are acting. You can also find detailed information about the Hammond situation at our webpage here.
