“...Seems like it’s all been in the works for a long time....”
It has been.
“..take all the guns away from law abiding citizens...”
Hard to do that when folks are shooting back.
“Law-Abiding” stops at the moment when those IGNORING the law of the land decide to try to murder you for daring to demand your rights.
This is the moment and the day those firearms are for.
Northam wants a war.

Like it has been said....
Two of the most important things one should have is a pistol and a parachute.
If you EVER need either, and don't have, chances are pretty good you will NEVER anything again
They all do. These elitist f---ks actually think that the chiefs, constables, generals, and agency heads of the LE and Military that they appointed and vetted speak for the rank & file of their agencies...
All the cops and soldiers I know topped out at sergeant. Those folks think a lot more like me and a lot less like Beto. And when their perfectly attired political appointee tells those guys to roll out and go get their uncle Joe's AR, there might be a surprise with the way that order is actually executed.
Sure, some of 'em will go along with the program. But I do believe that a lot of rank & file NG, Military, Local LE, and perhaps rank & file State LE will not. Expect a lot of Blue Flu. Expect some tips to ensure casualties. Expect maintenance and readiness to go into the dumpster. Expect some desertions and even a lovely tradition from Korea and Vietnam to be re-discovered on an occasional basis...fragging.
My biggest worry is that these dumb@$$&$ convince themselves that they really need to do SOMETHING about those horrible GUNS and further convince themselves that only a fringe few percent will fight back. Even if it is only a few fringe percent, that will be all it takes.
For a party of would be "revolutionaries", they seem to have little grasp of how those have actually played out in the past.
