Came across this video on another forum (not gun related)
http://www.1800goguard.com/movie/
It is a sponsored music video from the National Guard.
The video shows some 'footage' of revolutionary war 'citizen soldiers' fighting. These were not national guardsmen, but true citizen soldiers - regular guys with muskets. The video is trying to link this era with the current Organized National Guard; not the same thing. This bothers me a bit.
I feel like the linking of the original citizen soldier and the current National Guard undermines the meaning of the 2A and serves to further brainwash the masses that the 2A is not an individual right.
I would like to interpret the video/lyrics as referring to who we know as the citizen soldier: You and I.
