ready for some civil-war action?
just looking over the proposed bill for the new gun ban, that apparently bush is in favor of. it's pretty wide-spreading, kinda like the super dmca. basically, they want to take away just about every type of defensive weapon on the market, and some of the target/hunting weapons as well. actually, a lot of hunting weapons. and they even specifically state the ruger mini-14. it even bans sales of parts for firearms, so if yours breaks, you're fucked.
i know this has been posted before, but it didn't seem people gave it much heed. if this passes, we very well could see a civil war. taking away all our guns? i bet that will go over just as well as prohibition did.

and look at the people that seem to want this to pass, from a link on the site of the congressional introduction:
