Look at some of the legislation they've passed. gun control act of 68, the so called firearm owners protection act of 86, the patriot act, the list goes on. It's called the slippery slope.

First off, I'm not saying the entire populace will rise up. There are those around us now that are, or would be, perfectly comfortable with becoming subjects of the governments whim or that would support the tyrannical actions of the government, so long as it was working toward an objective that they agreed with. But, the other side of that, once it had finally had enough, would rise up. Then we would see the civil war of the century.
