_No law protects private "militia"_:
See _District of Columbia v. Heller_, 554 U.S. 570, 621 (2008), citing _Pressor v. Illinois_, 116 U.S. 252 (1886):
The Second Amendment "does not prevent the prohibition of private paramilitary organizations".
From _Presser_:
(115) ". . . . It cannot be successfully questioned that the state governments, unless restrained by their own constitutions . . . have . . . the power to control and regulate the organization, drilling, and parading of military bodies and associations . . . . (116) The exercise of this power by the states is necessary to the public peace, safety, and good order. To deny the power would be to deny the right of the state to disperse assemblages organized for sedition and treason, and the right to suppress armed mobs bent on riot and rapine."
That is not a new idea; this law is from October 1658:
"Military, [S. 11] . . . . It is Further Ordered, that henceforth all warrants for impressing [e.g., drafting] & raifing of fouldiers for any expedition, fhall be directed to the Committy of militia of the feverall Townes who may execute the fame by the Coftable & the faid Committee are hereby impowred & required to fupprefs all raifing of fouldiers, but fuch as fhall be by the authority of this government."
In contemporary English:
"Military, [S.] 11. . . . It is Further Ordered, that henceforth all warrants for impressing [e.g., drafting] & raising of soldiers for any expedition, shall be directed to the Committee of militia of the several Towns who may execute the same by the Constable & the said Committee are hereby impowered & required to suppress all raising of soldiers, but such as shall be by the authority of this government."
The Colonial Laws of Massachusetts. Reprinted from the Edition of 1660, with the Supplements to 1672. Containing Also, the Body of Liberties of 1641. (Boston: Rockwell & Churchill, City Printers, Published by Order of the City Council of Boston, 1889), William H. Whitmore, Record Commissioner, at 179.
In fact, all 50 states classify such fake "militia" as paramilitary organizations and PROHIBIT them.
