Oh, yeah! Just a few days ago someone posted a link to some website where you could supposedly join a militia in your state. The page itself was so "8 x 10 Glossy" that to me, it was immediately clear that it's some kind of psyop - for sure, a way to collect names of those willing to fire on gov't forces -- but also, no doubt, to trick gun-owning patriots into being brainwashed in one way or another. An Antifa-for-Conservatives, I'd imagine. Apologies for not remembering the name of the org nor of the man who posted it.
Where to start? How about the fact that the shit bird, er senator, same thing, misspelled publicly. Publically lol wut? Secondly this could be used to outlaw hunting, as it's an activity that could cause injury or bodily harm. It could also be used to criminalize the power of citizens arrest or even just stopping someone from committing a crime against you. But we know the government, especially Democrats, have no problem with any of those things. And I'm sure antifa would somehow be exempt from this act. It could also be used to shut down the right of the people to petition government for a redress of grievances. After all, it's not far fetched for your local leftist politician to say you speaking at a city/county government meeting is impeding the function of government. But by using the scare tactics of the big bad evil militia being stopped they can get the sheeple to support it. This is nothing but pure big government authoritarianism running roughshod over the rights of we the people.
This bill just opens the door to bloody Soviet-style repression of freedom of association, assembly, speech, bearing arms, using arms, etc. Generally a terrible idea. I can understand the sentiment, though it doesn't meet Constitutional criteria.
They have a point. Eddie Rogers joined an anti-government militia. In 1959 Walt Disney produced a 5 part miniseries about the gang he joined. (Edward Rogers 1750-1824 Private, Marion’s Brigade, South Carolina Militia, American Revolution) Eddie voted for the people that ratified the Bill of Rights

Will the Senate use the 1792 militia act I feel it is a possibility or executive order 13306 that too is a possibility.
Where’s the exemption for the FBI (The Dem-owned militia)?
This bill is as rotten as the foul gas rising from the DC swamp.
For a group who natter on about "But it says 'A well regulated militia...'" they sure have no concept of what exactly that means.
Remember when Professor Umbridge banned Hogwarts students from having clubs. I remember 😂.

Whatever justification they may have for doing this doesn’t really matter.
The constitution enshrines the right to assembly, and the right to form militias.
I think you missed my point
Probably.
