Unintended Consequences, a self-published 1995 "patriot fiction" novel in which the independently wealthy and heavily armed (he shoots down two National Guard helicopters) author-insert protagonist leads a war against gun control by murdering senators and posing their bodies in gay sex orgies, planting child pornography on their corpses, etc. Eventually works his way all the way up to threatening the president at gunpoint, which leads to all gun control being made illegal forever and also he gets a full pardon. And on a similar note, The Enemies Trilogy, an entire series that expands on the same basic theme. ATF agents pull off a double-false-flag operation, framing a disturbed Iraq veteran for a mass shooting and making it look like he was trying to frame Muslim terrorists, and in response the government makes guns illegal. The protagonists are forced to defend themselves as the ATF begins murdering gun owners everywhere. Book two takes place five years later, as the Southwest is reeling from the passage of a new US constitution and the secession of Nuevo Mexico, and book three takes place shortly afterward in the hurricane-and-superplague-stricken (this is the liberals' fault somehow) martial law zones on the Gulf Coast. The author wrote another book that arguably takes place between 1 and 2, but with unrelated characters. I've had some very long threads in TFR dissecting all of these over a period of years, along with a bunch of predictable short stories by the second author. Currently bogged down in that last book, though, which is just as crazy but unfortunately not as interesting and really preoccupied with sailboats.
