militia groups  

Definición

  • The self-described militia groups that began to form during the 1990s were part of a grassroots movement challenging the authority of the federal government to intervene in local affairs. The use of the term militia was intended to bring to mind the Jeffersonian political philosophy framing one side of the argument about national defense in the early years of the United States.
