The constitution of the State of Ohio designates every able-bodied male citizen of the state between certain ages as a member of the state militia. I think I'm too old to qualify but I'm a former combat medic and would be glad to volunteer!

I politely declined saying a militia is not my thing.

Organized militia are great but often are watched and infiltrated so there is that.

Ask your self if the people you are considering aligning with can be trusted to protect your wife and kids like they are there own. If not and they dont bring valuable skills and resources move along.

A group that meets the above would be nice but I have yet to find it so stick to myself.

There are a number of Militia people here in Michigan. Anyone remember Timothy McVeigh?

Apparently he was one over in the Thumb of Michigan.

Not looking for the attack the government type. Looking for the defend the community type. Now if our government becomes Marxist/Communist, I might be interested in the other variety.

After McVeigh the militia movement nearly died out. With the internet now most are just online communities. There are some that act similarly as community organizations that also help out with clean up after storms similar to The Guard.

I'm likeminded with most of the guys here when it comes to many things, including the direction our country is taking. If the crap ever really hits the fan I'll be seeking out similar individuals to take a stand with. I know several locally just through their social media posts. I'm not trigger happy or spoiling for a fight and it's not hard to envision what the carnage would look like if the country ever comes to blows with itself, but I won't sit it out.

There are some who think organizing before the fact will be key and I am just guessing but there are also probably Trapperman members who belong to organizations that don't post anything for the world to see. Not everyone on this site or viewing this site will be your friend after all.

I think you hit the nail on the head. Low key, but that dose make it harder to connect and organize.

Watch out for that Anti-Trumper from SE WY. He's no good.

There are many, much more informal, groups of friends, who get together to shoot, hunt and run around the woods together, who will protect each other if necessary. A high percentage of exmilitary members, like minded individuals and current, or retired law enforcement hang out like this in Ohio.

I travel a bunch and it's my opinion there are lots of patriots around this county and a lot of them are leery of social media.

I try to be plain spoken so here it is. I hope my country and my state never have to witness what I am a handful of my skilled friends would be willing to do to protect them.
