“Gun ownership serves basically five purposes, not just three,” documentary producer Jaeger told Oath keepers. “The three everyone talks about are: target practice, hunting, and self-defense, but the other two almost never mentioned are: deterrent against tyranny and participation in the ‘Militia of the several States.’ Why are [these] almost never mentioned even though the Founders mention the Militia in four separate places in the U.S. Constitution? If the Founders mention deterrent and Militia, but few others mention them, is this not be a serious red flag?
