Conversely, the right to bear arms, organised militia, blah blah stuff in the constitution was originally intended to prevent the government having a permanent army, for there to be a body of men who could be called upon to defend the country if necessary. Why is ok for there to be federal aspects to the Army, when in fact the constitution argues against the need for a federal army?
