Looks like the specter of 50,000 armed, pissed-off Virginians coming for a "visit" put the fear of GOD into the Virginia Democrat politicians - guns banned today:

Virginia Lawmakers Ban Guns at State Capitol

The move comes two days after the legislature reconvened under Democratic control for the first time since the early 1990s, and ahead of a planned pro-gun rally.

Hopefully people do turn out. Nut jobs never stopped the otherside from gaining traction for their horrible views. If some infiltrator or neo-nazi shows up we are free to shun them as not part of the group. But to stay home and make it easy for Governor Black Face is not what the nation needs.

Worth noting in the context of this thread: FBI arrests 3 white supremacists ahead of pro-gun rally

Here is the actual complaint -- one can presume they were under pretty strong surveillance to have had been recorded in their own apartment and for all the purchase records to be outlined: https://www.wric.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/74/2020/01/DOJMathews.pdf

As predicted in the original article, the nutjobs and psychos are becoming the media image. I personally think all the time and money invested in the Lobby Day activities would be much better spent fueling litigation because yahoos like this trio are going to be there and they are going to torpedo our chances at overturning this type of legislation via the courts by acting as a real demonstration to vast numbers of people, of why guns should be banned. Totally not helpful.

Those agitators and Agent Provocateurs are all designed to derail anything good that could happen, and are likely the reasons the Gov'ner has issued his so called emergency declaration banning weapons and such! Two choices, show up and make your voices heard, and possibly risk entanglement with them and or LEO, Or, take the fight outside the circle of death and and push the message from without! Let these arsehats take the stage while the good people go someplace else and make the message heard without being at the capital complex!

And folks are actually surprised that Americas premier Law Enforcement agency has such public distrust?
Look at the more recent actions these people have taken, and lets not forget they have combined their actions with the BATF many times!

Fully expect to see a bunch of these arsehats at the rallies!
