Armed men are citizens. Disarmed men are subjects.

Yes, I've slowly come to realise that this is what some FReepers colloquially mean by those terms, even though the usage isn't widespread enough to be entered in any dictionary I've seen.

Perhaps you can be more specific. Each is in the dictionary, my dictionary anyway Webster's Seventh New Collegiate, 1971. I do not mean any of the terms in my statement 'colloquially'.
