Comment Males 17-45 are in a militia (Score 1) 1633

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/... The Militia Act of 1903 makes an organized militia, but anyone not part of that is in the reserve militia if they are a man between 17-45. So, most of the people he is trying to prevent from having guns could still have them under this amendment. This doesn't count states that would just make everyone in their state automatically part of the "state" militia to bypass this nonsense.
