So your definition of able bodied discriminates against older individuals? That's some what strange coming from a committed Libtard.

Lets see: Since most definitions I've seen over the years specifically states "able bodied men" I guess that means no females could be members of the militia either?

Sometimes you "logic" escapes me and I believe the majority
of the members of this board.

Tench Coxe, a prominent American political economist of the day (1755–1824) who attended the earlier constitutional convention in Annapolis, explained (in the Pennsylvania Federal Gazette on June 18, 1789) the founders' definition of who the militia was intended to be and their inherent distrust of standing armies under the direct control of 'civil rulers' when he wrote:


"The militia of these free commonwealths, entitled and accustomed to their arms, when compared with any possible army, must be tremendous and irresistible. Who are the militia? Are they not ourselves? Is it feared, then, that we shall turn our arms each man against his own bosom. Congress have no power to disarm the militia. Their swords, and every other terrible implement of the soldier, are the birth-right of an American ...the unlimited power of the sword is not in the hands of either the federal or state governments, but, where I trust in God it will ever remain, in the hands of the people."

The above is the intent of the United States founding fathers and is as valid today for most of us as it was 200 years ago. I believe a goodly portion of the responsible citizens will continue to stand up for and if necessary die to retain our rights to freedom. This oppressive and illegal Obama administration has accomplished ONE thing in the past 5 years and that's provide a wakeup call as to what a demonic socialist in the mold of a Hitler or Stalin can accomplish if left unchecked.
I suspect he remains as clueless as to just how close he was to an armed rebellion as he is about the happenings in the former USSR.

The 2nd Amendment IS an unalienable right.
