It's called Project Appleseed. There certainly are some people involved with whom I disagree, but the stated goals of civic engagement, firearms safety, and political neutrality are things I can get behind.

- rdl 13y agoAh, makes sense. I guess I'm sensitive on the militia issue, because I think it would be awesome to set up a militia to provide the non-combat military services (communications, medical, maintenance, operating airfields, water, etc.) in a post disaster environment -- and doing it in a way with organic security, so you could go in directly to a place like Haiti or even Somalia without delay. The "light infantry fighting in the woods" militia is dumb, though.
