Weapons Collection: A Step-by-Step Guide
Stage I: Preliminary Assessment
Before launching a weapons collection program, it is imperative to assess the situation in the targeted area. Without a thorough understanding of the situation, it is not possible to decide whether or not it is feasible and desirable to conduct a weapons collection or destruction program in this environment.
When conducting interviews with the local population, one needs to be cautious in deciding who should perform this task. While various groups, including security and military forces may participate in the assessment the interviewers themselves should not belong to a group that may be seen as a threat.
(I resized this for the dramatics..)
There are two types of factors that should be analyzed: Basic factors and factors specific to weapons.
The following list suggests topics that should generally be examined in a preliminary assessment. However, in each particular case, some topics may not be relevant, and others not mentioned below may need to be added.

I would consider that no different than a doctor or government agency asking me the same question. Just because the NRA is an "ally" doesn't mean they have a right to ask that question, in fact they should be even more aware of the fact that they should not ask that question.
I will keep an eye out for NRA "weapons inspectors".

Do they ask about this or that gun control law..what you think about it ?
They ever ask you 'about' how much money you make ?...I really don't know..because for about 10 years,anything from the NRA except the magazine goes into the trash,unopened....

My friends,even inperfect friends..do not work hand in glove with UnAmerican politicians to remove my rights...
No American statesman would EVER attempt to disarm citizens...and only queslings would aid and abet those who would.
Those who chose to help destroy freedoms..OUGHT to be disarmed..the quicker the better.
It's as simple as that.
