Alaska Governor: States Should Look at the Militia Model as Bulwark Against Nationalized National Guard

 

Six state governors gathered at SHOT Show 2022 for the first-ever Governor’s Forum hosted by the National Shooting Sports Foundation.

Governors Pete Ricketts (Nebraska), Kristi Noem (South Dakota), Asa Hutchinson (Arkansas), Brian Kemp (Georgia), Mark Gordon (Wyoming), and Mike Dunleavy (Alaska) met in Las Vegas to discuss the firearm industry in their states and reaffirm their commitment to the Second Amendment.

As part of his answer to a question about how states are banding together to push back against federal gun control laws, Gov. Dunleavy highlighted Alaska’s State Defense Force. He likened it to colonial-era state militias and offered the model as a way for other states to maintain an alternative to the National Guard, which is under dual state and federal control

  1. I see our grinning idiot; Governor Little could not get away from the fleshpots of Boise to attend. He is toast.

  2. I don't see any governors asking to shut down the NG in their states. Nor do I see them refusing to use NG assets in their states.

    They are just politicians giving a talk to a pro-gun audience. No action to follow.
