By the definition of some people, the men of almost every town would have been identified as militia in the days of our founding fathers.

If trouble broke out in those days, every able bodied man came out to end it...

Now, in similar circumstances, they are expected to hide under a coffee table and wait for help.

I don't like your version of progress.
