        But then too Madions was thinking of a well trained and regulated
militia, which is by nature harmless enough.


Any statistics on how many governments have been toppled (and how many have been challenged) by well trained and regulated militia, police forces, etc and, in contrast, by unruly mobs? I suspect the auxiliary legions were almost always more of a threat to (and more successful at usurping power in) ancient Rome than were the mobs (aside from the near scare of Sparticus' rebellion).
