I am afraid that this is the beginning of Civil War type talk. NO! We have a military that is sworn to defend this country against all enemies foreign and domestic. If we swear in a civil militia and allow them autonomy, we are inviting a possibility of a civil uprising that could lead to unbelievable consequences. This is madness and that is my opinion but we all have one just like something else we all have. This is a fool's errand. I believe that we spend enough money on the military as it is. We need to bring our boys home from Iraq. Enough of being the Earth's police force. Let the United Nations do that job.We will lend a hand if it is necessary but to just be the one and only sacrifice that is made is b.s.
