I don't know who Mr Coxe was, but just because he wrote something for a PA newspaper a couple of hundred years ago does not mean it is US law, or even a good idea. For all we know, he may have written that in response to some other equally patriotic and eloquent gentleman who felt just the opposite. After all, the founding fathers were just as paranoid about "insurrection" as we are, and the difference between a patriot and a traitor depends on which side wins. That's a lesson the Confederacy learned the hard way in 1865.
Personally, I don't like the idea of private citizen battalions so ready and eager to fight for my rights, whether they call themselves militias, or the Symbionese Liberation Army. What goes for Taxation also goes for Mobilization. I demand Representation for both.
