yea... they do target practice.. and then they eventually put that to use in an actual war or something.
where as the militias that are supposed to be protecting us from tyranny never go beyond target practice
so how specifically are they protecting us? are they gonna wait until the govt is actually rounding us up and sending us off to camps?
the bottom line is if the real military wanted to crush the militias they could easily do so. so all that's really happening is a bunch of men are getting together in the woods and playing dress up.
sort of similar to any other live action role playing i guess. except they never come out of character.
edit - actually i'll grant an exception for the ones that help with border patrol and shit like that. they're actually contributing something... but it's still got nothing to do with the police state/tyranny. actually they're assisting the police state, not preventing it. but the ones in the middle of tennessee or whatever are just useless.
