Virginia has a very and I mean very large Veteran population. Some with Ranger, Force Recon, Seals and Airborne tags. They really should not try to tie that on. Don't provoke people who know how to kill.

Provoke the “rednecks” and you get martyrs, more good PR
And thus eventually they can make use of tanks and helicopters to get rid of the “fascists”
If the Governor tries to call in the National Guard. They won't obey him. Most if not all of them are the people he is targeting.
He would be even more of a laughing stock. The Black Face leader of Tiny Town.

Why are so many rurals part of it?
Because most of Virginia is actually rural. Outside of area near DC and Norfolk area. It is very rural.

In Conservative, Rural areas and especially in the Appalachians, service to the country is regarded as an honor and a privilege. In liberal cities it's regarded more as an employer of last resort for people too stupid to get a real job.
Consequently, rurals supply half or more of the US armed forces despite being a small fraction of the actual population.

Then I guess it’s time to arm ANTIFA or any large number of left-aligned citizens en masse and send them into the grinder
I’m pretty sure even CNN can make it all sound inspiring and heartfelt
That or just send in cops with lots of body armor and heavily armored vehicles
I think it is all but certain now. Especially if someone looks at all those really old laws still on the books in Virginia.
That would result in something that makes the Tet Offensive seem like a Paint Ball game. Richmond would get invaded.

They don’t have the numbers and that would end up making the urban heads feel justified and make the armed forces, even those rural, be forced into action or start bombing them
They can stay inside walled compounds while they kill off the rednecks
Then they will have plans on replacing them with South Americans or Muslims
Cities are death traps in a real war. You cut off power to those cites (Which is very very easy) And you have crippled all the urbanites. Remember how when NYC had that major blackout a few years back. And how everyone was unorganized and just trying to get home or get out. Yeah their is a reason for that. People in cities depend on city infrastructure more than they realize.

They then proceed to have problems with said new nation, they either want to ban it or want to be in it and take control
Or just stay and pester everybody there
Unfortunately, it’s not like a forum, they would actually need to contribute something via work and trade or just not be a bother
OK, so... I think you're under a mistaken impression on the size and geography of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Firstly, you have to understand, it's an American State, and while not on of the biggest, it's ALSO not one of the smallest, it's one of those in the middle, albeit on the small side (35th in land area out of 50). Which means that in comparison to the Philippines it has only one third of the land area. Let that sink in a minute. Your ENTIRE country is only three times as large as a medium US State, and we have 49 more of them, most of which are BIGGER.
But that's not the only issue you're having understanding the situation properly. Virginia only has 8.5 million people living in that entire area. In comparison, the Philippines has over 100 million. This means that Your homeland has a population density slightly over FOUR TIMES that of Virginia.
This means our cities are much smaller, have less populations, which means there's nowhere near the same extreme imbalance you see between urban and rural areas like you are more used to. Virginia also doesn't have a single high density urban core like many other places, rather, it's spread out among three main areas and various smaller cities around the state. What this also means is that there's an expansive suburban and exurban regions of the State, which often have more in common with the true rural areas while maintaining higher populations.
Finally you have the actual geography of the State:
The urban corridor is mainly along the eastern side of the State, whereas the heart of the Virginia gun culture is in the mountainous region in the west of the State, along with the middle region between which tends to be more rural as well. This means that any crazy efforts to mobilize and use the national guard or something to attempt forceful confiscation run into considerable logistics problems due to those mountains. There's only a few places you can cross the Blue Ridge (the easternmost part of the mountains) to enter the Valley region of Virginia, which you can actually see if you compare the above topographical map of Virginia to a map of the major roads:
Note how there's only a few major highways crossing into the valleys and those other roads that are going in tend to be small and narrow. To give you some idea just how narrow these paths into the Valley region are, here's a closer look at that northern highway, Interstate 66, where it goes through the Manassas Gap into the Shenandoah Valley:
As such, the ability for the governor to do anything like you think he could do just doesn't exist.

What about getting “help” from other Left Aligned States?
That said, I think this will be a “long war” that may also be a Cold War
Government agents may enter town and quietly ask for your guns and other information, then leave

This is the 2016 election map, if you look at it carefully.
Virginia is boardered by red states to the west, south and north, but it gets worse because this map is deceptive.
This is what America looks like on a county level during 2016.
Does that look like a winnable civil war to the blue to you?

Not something you’d be able to tell with how much they dominate the media, entertainment and academia and even forums like our sister sites
Speaking of the last, you’re gonna have to deal with them indoctrinatingbpeople
I wonder, are the guys in urban Virginia thinking that they’re bigger than they think or are in severe denial? Politicians included
