The militia part of the 2nd also protects individuals not associated with any group. They are still potential future militia members.

If the call for a militia goes out in a time of crisis, you want citizenry able to take up the fight/enforce security who are familiar with the weapons which they must use immediately in the emergency- you can't pause and train when it is time to fight.

Would be super handy if they could bring their own guns and ammo too.
