1ST TENNESSEE RIFLES UMIT
Freedom isn't FREE anymore
Policy
The Volunteer Militia exists by law under Amendment II of the United States Constitution, U.S.C. 10, Chapter. 13, Section 311, and the Tennessee State Constitution Article I, Sections 24 and 26.
Our purpose is to uphold the United States and Tennessee State Constitutions, defend against domestic enemies, execute and safeguard the laws of the Union, suppress insurrection and repel invasions. We adhere to the literal and original intent of the United States Constitution and Bill of Rights as put forth by the Founding Fathers and hold those principles inviolate. We reject any philosophy of supremacy based on race, religion or gender.
state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be
infringed." Amendment Two, of the U.S. Constitution
What we are about
What is important to the militia is what is important to all Americans. We are concerned with the health of this nation. Militia members are a cross section of the American people. Many of us have been active in the political realm to voice our opinion to our elected leaders. Our voice has yet to be heard. We will not tolerate any trouble makers, Jew haters, bigots, racists, dissenters of any type first and foremost. We are here to reestablish the Militias reputation. The militia is a formation of communities. This is true now as it was throughout the history of this land. We the people have gathered together to form one voice in the hope that we will be heard. Our communities are banding together across this country to form one voice which is getting louder each day. It is not the guns of the militia that our government fears, we have not fired a single shot. The people are uniting together as one to bring out the truth, justice and liberty that we are Americans! The 1st Tennessee Rifles are not a "Anti-Government" hate club or occult of any type. As an "Unorganized" militia we will assist local state and government in times where manpower has been exhausted. We stand against enemies both foreign and domestic.
