Texas has a legal militia, its called the Texas State Guard, we however do not get much funding, we are NOT allowed to carry weapons. We are a civil augmentation force, we are a Texas Military Force under the Adjutant Generals Office. Our funding for the fiscal year of 2012 is just shy of 750 thousand, yes thousand. Texas doesn't have enough money to give us more, the current Administration in Texas refuses to give us more or allow us to be armed, they feel if we are armed then we would be a target, but we are already targets as we do wear the current US Army ACU uniform.
the Texas State Guard is still active????
I joined with my Dad in the late 70's. Our unit (in Longview at the time) had 3-4 drills, then just seemed to fizzle. I never heard anything more after about 1978. I wonder if I've been AWOL for the last 34 years?
