I keep getting questions about the WSM, so I am going to sum it up right here.
The WSM is the Washington State Militia. Our rights as Washingtonians, is for a well regulated armed Militia, made up of the citizens to protect our state from foreign invasion, suppress domestic rebellion and to fight tyranny in government. We have not made any of this up and it comes straight from the Constitution of the United States, Militia Acts and the words of the founding fathers of this country.
You might have to go back a ways in history, but every state use to have their own State Militia. We live in Washington State, so we are naturally the Washington State Militia. The Washington State Militia has its origins in 1855 when it was the Washington Territorial Militia. In 1889, we became a state and the Washington State Militia's name was born. Going into World War I, the Militia structure was replaced with the federalized National Guard. It is questionable if the National Guard is even constitutional at all, but there system has been used for over a hundred years for supplementing the Army and Air Force in some capacity. What they have forgotten, was the citizen in the equation.
Flash forward to today, and we have the cards stacked against us. Still, there is room for growth that the government does allow. Like it or not the President of the United States is the Commander and Chief of all the State Militias, the Governor of the State of Washington is the Commander and Chief of the Washington State Militia, and there is an upper Chain of Command of the Militia that has been appointed by the Governor with the National Guard and State Guard. There is nothing at the county or local level though and it appears the Federal and State governments are attempting to suppress that from rising. Hope this helps a little:)
