Arizona creates a State Militia
« on: May 08, 2013, 02:03:07 PM »
Responsible only to the governor...........   Functions within the state borders...  In response to National Guard being removed from the border control equation...

Neat.

Sad.

And the comment quoted in the article:

Quote
This is dangerous…..and are we taxpayers going to be footing the bill? Membership to exclude anyone but white supremacists? And how is this going to create jobs, maintain laws and how do we stop a bunch of zealots running rampant?

Is downright retarded.



edit:

The bill signed by Gov Brewer:

The US Code already includes an "unorganized militia" and defines it:

The map below shows which states already have State Militias.  From the Wikipedia:
State defense forces: army units highlighted in red, naval units in blue, those with both in green, inactive in purple. Puerto Rico is not shown.

You are right,  it is a territory.  But, I do not know if it is eligible to have its own "unorganized militia".  BTW, that part mentioning Puerto  Rico is a quote from the Wikipedia, not me.

Must have been a Wikipedia entry by the Manchild.  He did think we had 52 states.

Probably still does, and probably doesn't care.    After all, the administration keeps saying, and the LSM media keeps faithfully propagandizing, that Tripoli was "too far away" to send help.   The C-130 would "need tanker support".    The MNM is NOT too stupid to know how to factcheck, and they probably know what anyone who can  use Wikipedia and read State Dept announcements would know: 
1) The range of a C-130 is 2,300 miles.
2) Tripoli is only 407 miles from Benghazi
3) Therefore, a refueling tanker is not necessary
4) A C-130 would take one hour and 15 minutes to reach Benghazi from Tripoli
5) The attacks went on for EIGHT hours.
6)  Special Forces had left their barracks and were crossing the airfield to the C-130 when State Department Officials ORDRED them to "stand down".

Conclusions:
1)  The media knows everything I've printed above yet continues to preach the Administration line, ergo, they  are nothing less, nor more, than an arm of White House Information.
2) Point #1 effectively reduces the Obama presidency to an affirmative action program in which the media are acting as if he is not smart enough to be the president, or hold onto his office, without their help. 
3)  Both the President and the LSM media are pushing America as hard as they can toward their Socialist idea of " human rights and social justice in a peaceful and just world".  If their actions would only match their words.

Pres. Obama is obviously smarter than many  give him credit.  This leaves only one conclusion:  The LSM media and Obama are conspiring together to bring our country down ASAP.   A review of all of his official and unofficial acts since he took office, and before as a Senator, leads to the conclusion that his decisions are always against America's friends, for America's enemies, against free enterprise and for socialization of America, leading US to the "new world order" under Socialism.

Grey what is the LSM and the MNM?

I got tired of typing Leftist-Socialist-Marxist.   They are all the same species.  The different colorations are merely camouflage.    And,  MNM is Major News Media --  CNN, ABC, MSNBC, CBS and NPR.    Those corporations have no conservative representation on their schedule at all.  Unlike Fox, which has Juan Williams, Allen Colmes, Geraldo, Bob Beckel,  Lanny Davis and Doug Schoen, to name a few, the MNM COMBINED do not have that many Conservatives or Republicans, except RHINOS, who  are not conservatives.   The MNM spend considerable effort doing character assassinations of the Liberals I mentioned who appear on Fox.   Supporters of the MNM, Liberials, like to refer to Fox News as FAUX News, as if Fox didn't report facts and made up news, unlike the MNM which always report only the facts ... NOT!!!  LOL!!  The MSN treatment of the assassination of our Libyan ambassador in Benghazi  is proof of that.

And here I thought LSM was Lame Stream Media.    Not that there is much difference.

Because they're "secret" militias.. 8) Like the blue water navy we're secretly building in the panhandle ;)

Because out here, on the raggedey edge of the 'verse, where there is a finer line between "have enough", and "hungry", and "Stupid" burns just a whole lot hotter ........ we don't have time for what does not make money ....... just my $.02.
The Right to Keep and BEAR Arms is enshrined explicitly in both our State and Federal Constitutions, yet most of us are afraid to actually excercise that Right, for very good reason: there is a good chance of being arrested........ and  THAT is a damned shame.  III.
