We acknowledge a responsibility and exercise our rights as established in the Constitution of the United States to maintain our militia and train our members in the many disciplines necessary to the function of the militia both as a whole and to the members individually. We acknowledge a responsibility to educate our members in areas of history, law and principles of a Republican government as compiled in the experience and records of our forefathers. The SCSM does not advocate overt acts of violence and/or aggression. It remains a defense oriented organization. Like other constitutional militia organizations, the SCSM recognizes that good government, founded and implemented consistent with Constitutional tenets is not only a blessing, but essential to the function and preservation of a free society.
