Wiki: The word militant, which is both an adjective and a noun, essentially means 'to be open to using violence to achieve an end'. It comes from the 15th Century Latin ""militare"" meaning ""to serve as a soldier"". The related modern concept of the militia as a defensive organization against invaders grew out of the Anglo-Saxon ""fyrd"".
