If just IG got banned, I'd focus more on my Imperial Navy fleet. If 40k got banned...well, BFG is awesome, and I've been eyeing Flames of War for a while now.
If wargaming as a whole got banned, I'd build a life size Baneblade, smuggle it into Washington D.C., and hold the government for ransom until they agree to lift the ban. I plan to be dressed as a Commissar while doing this, and I will be carrying out summary execution for heresy against the God-Emperor.

Two words:
' 40K', 'Speakeasy'
Imagine it, convert the basement of your house into a glorious gaming room, with 1930s Jazz and a cocktail bar, and then flip a lever and BAM! turns into a dirty, poorly lit room full of old christmas decorations and broken DVD players in a matter of seconds, you know, for those who prefer a more traditional gaming environment

I have a Dutch passport, and dual citizenship.
So visas and so on aren't really an issue.
Very meta, but I think you may have missed the point of this little exercise  Automatically Appended Next Post: I've started Dark Eldar, so I already have a second army covered. But if 40k disappeared, I'd move over to Inifinity in a heartbeat.

I'd pack up my now "banned" Orks, and drive across country to D.C.. Arriving at Congress, I would calmly place terrain at the top of the steps, roll a few dice, and deploy my Ork horde announcing that this a "Dawn of War" deployment, "Annihilation" game. After the military confiscate my army, and after being released from custody, I'd log into Dakka...and complain that the President cheats, he wouldn't let me see his rolls, or codex, and that his army (the US Military) is borked...and I got tabled because his codex is broken. 
Or...I'd revisit my Necrons...
Beyond that, I did just take up Warmachine...
And barring all that, back to traditional paper RPGs, I guess...
