These people are so far removed from historical accuracy...
I heard some retard - and it was even a politician in a position of power - trying to claim that in the old days the government lent arms to the militias.
Bitch, the people lent the government things like warships.

Don't get me started on the concept of letters of marquis.
Marque
Woops my bad, thanks for the correction marquis was totally something else wasn't it? :D
Marquis is a noble title, like a count or duke- it's of French origin, I think.
The Maquis were the French Resistance in World War II, and Star Trek used the name for the terrorist group that were fighting the Cardassians.
It's easy to get them confused, because they're all French words that are spelled similar.
