Thanks, I figure I personally swore to support and defend the Constitution - I should probably join the group charged with protecting the most often attacked amendment to that document. They're far from perfect, but as with all things the people need to be involved. As a member, I'll be sure to let them know exactly what I think about their actions - the good and the bad. It won't stop at the NRA though, Congress needs fixing - as it presently harbors a great many domestic enemies to the Constitution, and I'm sworn to protect against them just as much as the foreign variety. A few people think I'm bluffing, but I'll put my money where my mouth is and try to change my "title" from SGT to REP one day. I figure if I can sacrifice several years of my life in Iraq, I can stand to sacrifice a few more in DC.

well heck, I missed that one by a few weeks entirely. I just joined under the EPL program, but I'll probably shell out my remaining $970 when I redeploy to home station. My per diem pay should more than handle that.
