The Whiskey Rebellion was an armed insurrection against the federal government by citizens claiming governments overreach and unjust burdensome taxes. President Washington called up the well-regulated militias in the name of national defense, legally obligating them to fight under his command whether they agreed or not, and quashed the revolt. That's what the 2nd Amendment is for. Not to legalize treason but to arm the government against it.
