The state national guard and state guard reserves are considered a militia. And they were somewhat nationalized during the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to keep from starting up the draft again.

The point of the matter is that it's the right of private citizens in a time of need to organize themselves into an armed force.
It can be the aftermath of a natural disaster, riots, etc.
We have the right to use our weapons (guns) to defend lives and property.
On that note... The police tend to only show up AFTER a crime has been committed. So I'm sorry but if someone breaks into my home in the middle of the night I'm going to put several bullets into them and then take my chances with the legal system.
