Yes, the states have only so much power re: the militia,

So far, so good.

but if a state wants to regulate firearms for one of a billion diff reasons that have nothing to do with the mil, they may do so.

How can they ban firearms without affecting the militia?

Because as of right now, there is no fed law that I know of requiring anybody to be armed in any way or to participate in any way with any militia at anytime in any place in any manner whatsoever. Also, it is perfectly reasonable for the fed gove to say you, you, and you are in the mil as of now, we will supply you with guns bullets and uniforms. Therefore the state could take your private guns and not interfere with such a law. Again, none of this is what I like or prefer, but that's the way it is. And AGAIN, considering that we are on a topic (Guns) that has been hotly debated for at least 50 years now by tens of thousands of authorities and courts, etc., I'd like to know, again, if there is anybody on God's green earth that subscribes to this theory other than you.
