I know this is FUBAR, but I think its funny that the 2nd amendment actually exists for this exact reason of State’s having their own militias that they can use, but of course they’re not going to actually use it.
Walz is taking a zero confrontational approach, so he’s defnitley at fault here, but state NGs haven’t exactly been effective since before the 1940s.
If anyone remembers the University of Alabama desegragation fiasco, JFK federalized Alabama’s national guard and essentially crippled what power the state governor had as a bunch of soldiers showed up to escort students and shove him aside.
The 2nd Amendment did its thing for both sides in the 1st American Civil War. The Fascist militias won’t have exclusivity for being armed, if good people make a point of being armed and ready for the conflict to come.
