>>..until he calls out the State Guard and State Militia...<<

I’ve heard of the state guard, my uncle is a member. State militia? I’ve not heard of a state militia.

Is this just folks that get together and declare themselves militia? If so, how would Perry call them into service?

The state militia is defined in Tex. Gov. Code Sec. 431.001

During the Armageddon talk as we approached year 2000, I understand that one sheriff in Iowa planned on deputizing any CCW holder who volunteered. Mebbe something along that line would work today.
