Militia HQ Fire Declared Arson

Someone purposely set a fire that destroyed the office area of the Washington County Militia last week, County Fire Marshal John Jenkins said Tuesday.

Jenkins would not comment on what evidence led him to suspect arson at the structure southeast of Fayetteville. No other information will be released, he said.
Well, that was no surprise.

In a tangentially-related matter, Wayne Fincher's daughter has the following request:
Do you know where i can get a copy of the congressional hearings on the national firearms of 1934? Or the subcommittee hearings of the national firearms act of 1934? I'm trying to find a copy of it for my dad and I can't seem to find a copy of it.
They may only exist in an archive--information will be appreciated.

I'll bet it was the feds that did it. They seem to like playing with fire. And she won't be allowed to have a copy of the 1934 NFA, either.

This is why I think organizing militias openly is a very bad idea. You'll have enemies, government or otherwise, and you'll be giving them targets to destroy. In my opinion, it's much better to stick to a small group of friends you can trust, and keep it secret.

All of the House/Senate hearings, floor debates, etc. are available at:

Expand the section on National Firearms Act of 1934 to get to the links.
