I think you'll find many retired and active military personnel involved in the local militia movements as well as local law enforcement. Many may not be "out of the closet" due to it being bad for their careers but that doesn't mean they aren't involved or don't have family who are.
I'm not saying anything stupid is ever going to happen but if it did you might find that the people with the big guns aren't necessarily on the side you think they are. It's not liberals who are joining the military or law enforcement.

The primary reason the military is "right" oriented is because Republicans...are generally bigger on defense spending and defense R&D then Democrats are. You will find former military involved in all walks of life...so yes their are some that are in the militia.
