If I understand this article correctly, then two US counties are now officially recognising local militias, including providing financial support.
"... Between January and March, residents of at least eight counties brought “militia resolutions” to their boards of supervisors, requesting formal recognition of a militia and funding. The resolutions were similar, and generally vague about what the militias would actually do once formed. Only two actually passed. ... "
Being an old cunt I remember Yougoslavia going from a reasonably functional country to a complete mess, and how each step of the process seemed impossible until it actually happened. Small events like the above militia funding can seem irrelevant, but the precedent can potentially be enormous.
