Ron, I do not believe in real life unfortunately, it would be like this. There would be strong opposition and strong supporter to the events that hapenned since the beginning of the manifestation Del proposed (as I said, great idea and all, but wrong people came in for the wrong things.)
Here, there are only strong oponents to Liberty, while the only supporters really are law enforcement themself. But our laws aren't that terrible. (don't say 5M is a lot to register for selling weapons, because you make much more than 5M per guns you sell...). There is something completely unbalanced, see what I mean? In a more realistic fashion, things would at least have gone a bit more slow rate. DPL, in my opinion, would have begun as a political party of Liberty, with maybe his own militia under the umbrella of the LR (which is of course, not official). Things could degenerate, as some people take their side while others back liberty government. It would escalate to open violence, DPL being dissolved as an official party, all of them actively fighting against liberty - and then, some exterior movement might support them - everyone can have a reason to see the downfall of Liberty, due to the fact they hold the monopoly of a load of things (synth food among other things, seen badly in rheinland and kusari, orbital spa, hated in kusari, etc)
That would be realistic, would give a chance to people rping liberty law enforcement a chance to counter and all. This however, just escalated at incredible rate to everyone-hate-liberty.
