This is not a petition

I just received a survey from the NRA. I answered it, of course, expressing views, for the most part opposed to what they were probably looking for. One last box asked if I wished to join the NRA. I immediately x'ed the no box and wrote NEVER next to it. Before I put it in the mail, I hesitated. then removed the survey from the mailbox. I had an epiphany. Why don't I join the NRA? Why don't we all join the NRA? If we get enough people to join, we could have enough votes elect responsible leadership and use that organization as the vanguard to prohibit the sale and ownership of assault weapons and semi-automatic pistols. How bout it?
