On that "militia" thing.

A few points out of article 1, section 8 I think

The Congress shall have Power To….

…To provide for calling forth the Militia to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

…To provide for organizing, arming, and disciplining, the Militia, and for governing such Part of them as may be employed in the Service of the United States, reserving to the States respectively, the Appointment of the Officers, and the Authority of training the Militia according to the discipline prescribed by Congress;

…To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.

heh... Who knew?
