Just one? Filthy casuals.
The question you need to ask your self is: if I presented the "unorganised militia" to George Washington how long would he need to organise them?

If the answer is anything other than a few weeks then it's a failure to the spirit of the Second Amendment. One of the purposes of the "Organised militia" is a final check on tyranny. If your military is basically the same as your civilian population it's virtually impossible to use one to oppress the other.
