I'll all for the constitution and all, but what situation are you proposing would be a good time to send out the calling all gun owners signal. War? That's what the army is for and I doubt a bunch of civilians with the barest of training are going to be too helpful should the US be attacked. National Emergency? It's a nice thought, but the signal isn't too specific and there are lots of people out there I wouldn't want involved in recovery efforts that might happen to own guns. Civil Unrest? Can't imagine telling people to go get their guns is a great idea during a period of social or political strife. If you can think of a plausible scenario where you would want every Joe off the street who happens to own a gun dragging it to a rally point, I'd love to hear it...
Me too...
