… on the forthcoming gun-grab attempts.

Anonymous mentioned the legal steps that would need to be taken to overturn any weapon confiscation legislation. “Upon failure of all the aforementioned bodies to perform such duty, it will be the authority and duty of any and all members of the United States Armed Forces to remove the president, vice president, cabinet members and members of Congress — and the US Supreme Court justices — from power by military force. Failure by all military members to perform such duties will constitute as an act of civil war against the American people by said authorities.”

Huh.

I hadn’t previously given much thought to how Anonymous would react to a gun-grab, but I guess it makes sense that a group of anarchists would see an attempt by the government to consolidate power as a bad thing. Cheesing off a few hundred thousand hackers just might not be the best thing the US government could do. There are increasing calls for secession or civil war coming from the more unhinged on the right; and claims from the more unhinged on the left that the US FedGuv would simply use drones to smoke any civilians who dared stand up for themselves, giving said “gun nuts” no chance to defend themselves with AR-15’s. But if the hackers wade in, the drones might just find themselves being hijacked by someone with *way* too much Call Of Duty or flight simulator stick time.
