There are more of them that do than there are that don't. A militia wing is very common outside the western world.

    Really? What happens if they get a plurality or even a majority, would there be a significant risk of a coup?

    Generally speaking, you don't want to mix your militias and political parties.

    In some places yes. In others they're already more concerned with an ongoing conflict. There are some that just organize their military that way and wouldn't think of it. Heck that's the original way of organizing a military.
