the founders' idea of a militia is akin to the modern day national guard.
a modern day militia is usually a gun enthusiast group composed of people crazier than branch dividians.
my answer is no. if the shite hits the fan, we get invaded and duty calls, I'd rather go back into the army.
This.
When I was a child I played 'Army', 'Civil War', 'Cowboys and Indians'.
When I grew up, I put away childish things.

Please go do some research. The modern day Guard is not what the foundered intended, inn fact the Guard did not even exist until the early 20th century.
I'm not saying these guys the OP is describing is what the founders intended. But really, they are closer to the original state militia than the National Guard today.
