Interestingly enough, some of the proposed anti-private milita laws are worded 
broadly enough that they would cover Boy Scouts working on  marksmanship 
badges. In reality the Boy Scouts *are* a para-military organization. They 
wear uniforms, salute, and even sort of have a rank structure.

All of which just goes to show how silly it is to try and probibit people from 
exercising more than one constitutional right at a time, whilst pretending not 
to infringe on either. ( freedom of assembly + RKBA)
