With all due respect monsieur, the militias are composed of capsuleers. While some of us have the loyalty, conviction, dedication, sense of duty and discipline to perform as a functional military arm, many of us are mercenaries out for the greatest advantage in either ISK, resources, kills or even bragging rights. Even worse, some outright use the militias as a shield for blatant acts as marauders and pirates. I learned most of that in grad school, and it isn't hard to verify when one looks at the activity of the militias.

It is wise to judge the militias not as a whole, but as separate parts within the whole. Some individuals, corporations and alliances are worthy of praise for their efforts and dedication while others deserve naught but ridicule and spite.

Indeed there are still those who haven't tainted our militia's once good name. However, you can clearly see from the comments some of these pilots have stated that the honor of the militia has departed. I hope it will be restored in time, however I cannot be certain of that with this escalating violence and hatred.
