militia -- a : a part of the organized armed forces of a country liable to call only in emergency b : a body of citizens organized for military service (Websters) To the FBI, the word militia means a group of wackos out in a rural area that own a lot of guns and don't pay taxes. The FBI has instructed the media to "play down" and to avoid the use of the word "militia" in the media, because it apparently excites these groups and helps them gain credibility. The FBI stole our word right out of the Bill of Rights.
