In its proper constitutional sense, the term [militia] means all the able-bodied people who can be trained and disciplined to act in the communityโs defence when itโs attacked. Since it encompasses every able-bodied person, it does not refer to thoseโsuch as the police, the military, or even the National Guardโwho formally compose the official defence forces of the nation.
