Not only would you gain the attention of the government, but it would "actually" get media attention,, and in these time, turning the media over to our side may be the greatest ally we could have.

The three classes H.R. 11654 provides for are the organized militia, henceforth known as the National Guard of the State, Territory and District of Columbia, the unorganized militia and the regular army. The militia encompasses every able-bodied male between the ages of 18 and 45. All members of the unorganized militia have the absolute personal right and 2nd Amendment right to keep and bear arms of any type, and as many as they can afford to buy.
Ok, I'm not being a smart ass but wouldn't that mean that your right to bear arms as an able bodied member of a militia ends when you reach the age of 46? That's the thing about laws, you can read into them any way that supports your position, for and against. I think sometimes our citizenry forgets why there are 9 Supreme Court Justices. They rarely vote unanimously which just proves that our laws are never as cut and dried as many would make them out to be.
