You underestimate the resolve of Virginians and, at peril, their history (I’m a proud native of the Commonwealth). The state may have turned blueish/purplish because of a couple of counties hugged up to D.C., but 90%+ percent of the remainder declaring themselves #2A sanctuaries — supervisors & sheriffs — is no fluke. Virginians take their firearm rights seriously and will not surrender or register their semiautomatic weapons.
If the Democrats want them - they’ll have to come get them by force.
No one will register their guns or turn them in.
I would say ‘Secede or die’ but the Last thing I want is to give the Democrats a new state of Northern Virginia with two guaranteed Liberal Democrat senators.
You conservative Virginians need to get busy educating your people in proper statesmanship.
This false compassion of making people dependent on the state has got to be put to death.
That is civil disobedience, not a revolution.
Succession. Let Fairfax, Arlington, Falls Church and Loudoun become Blue State - call it East California. Move the POS governor to his new Capitol of Fairfax and let us be.
