The Militia of Utah is a governmental establishment referenced in the Utah Constitution as “the Militia”. Its presence serves the vital role
in the checks and balances necessary for the security of a free state. Without it, the Utah and US Constitutions are just a piece of paper.
UTAH CONSTITUTION:
Article xv, Section 1.
[How constituted.]
The militia shall consist of all able-bodied male inhabitants of the State, between the ages of eighteen and forty-five years,
except such as are exempted by law.
Article xv, Section 2.
[Organization and equipment.]
The Legislature shall provide by law for the organization, equipment and discipline
of the militia, which shall conform as nearly as practicable to the regulations for the government of the armies of the United States.
While Article xv, Section 1 cites
compulsory participation by all able-bodied male inhabitants between the ages of eighteen and forty-five years, the Militia of Utah favors
voluntary participation by all able-bodied men and women inhabitants of the State, between the ages of eighteen and sixty years or older.
Since Article xv, Section 2 fails to provide1 for the Militia, voluntary monthly contributions by inactive and nonparticipants are necessary.
The Militia
is a responsible statewide community devoted to the people of Utah who stand against its enemies, and benefit and protect the citizens of Utah. We are also a learning
resource for the modern citizen soldier.
We
oppose the following:
|
|
Slavery, Socialism,
Fascism, Communism, the New World Order — in other words, the philosophies of all tyrannies
A police state, the federalization and militarization of our local police, the United Nations
or any global peacekeeping forces whose Charters are incompatible with the Constitution
Unrestrained government, political democracy, wealth distribution, crony Capitalism, corporate plunder,
censorship — any compromise to our unalienable rights of life, liberty, and property
|
|
We
firmly support these ‘Individual Rights’ for every individual. Basic rights of Life, Liberty and Property include the right to
resist tyranny2 and the usurpation of constitutionally delegated powers as enumerated in the Declaration of
Independence. Equal opportunity for all and special privilege for none…
Racism
has no place in the Militia. All are created equal here and you
must respect your fellow members. Slurs, baiting another member,
antagonizing, disrespect, or demeaning another member are grounds for
immediate termination of your membership.
We
DO NOT advocate the violent overthrow of the state of Utah or
the United States Government.
We
DO NOT advocate the use of force offensively when no
hostilities are in effect.
We
DO pledge our lives, honor, and fortunes to ensure that our
State lives on forever in freedom.
It is the duty of everyone to help
recruit more members. Invite neighbors to Meet & Greets,3 talk with friends and family, call talk radio, promote at gun shows, on the internet, look
for or create community events we can participate in, do what you can to get the word out and let people know we’re here for them.
You
will be discharged for:
|
|
Advocating
any constitutionally illegal activity
Advocating
first strike military action of any kind
A
call to arms without Command Staff approval
Violating
any of the rules previously stated
Treating
a Utah citizen with disrespect, threatening remarks, intimidation, or assault of any kind
Possession
or consumption of alcohol or recreational drugs at Militia sanctioned events to include musters, training, recruiting events,
public outreach or support activities, or any venue in which such behavior is normally deemed inappropriate
|

you ever hear someone saying any of the following, you must report it immediately to your Chain of Command:
|
|

making racial slurs

1 The PEOPLE must provide the financial means for
the organization, equipment and discipline of the militia.
2The Militia serves to secure and support restoration. Restoration plays a critical part in the security of a free state.
Utah Restoration is a network of organizations on missions to 1) peacefully redress the government for infractions deemed unconstitutional and in opposition
to individual rights, 2) restore government to its original constitutional form, 3) re-establish the free market essential to a free state.
3 Meet & Greets –
Goto monthly event: Join the Militia
4 On-duty members
must remain apolitical. While off-duty members naturally have the freedom to express their personal politics, members who mutually
agree to discuss politics with other off-duty members must remain courteous and always refrain from creating division.
