'Ironically, this outcome will only further embolden Second Amendment supporters to be even louder for their rights,' a gun-rights group said in response.

Thousands are expected to congregate on Monday for Lobby Day, Virginia's annual occasion for average citizens to engage with representatives and advocate for particular causes.

The vague and ominous language angered groups like GOA, which contended in its lawsuit that these generic allusions did not confer upon the governor the authority to bar weapons from Capitol Square. The white supremacist violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017 weighed heavily on Lobby Day stakeholders. Northam cited the events—in which various alt-right factions converged, leading to the death of an anti-racist counter-protester—in his executive order. And his spoken comments more directly indicated the threats that have purportedly been intercepted ahead of Monday's rally.

In addition to allegations of extremist views, the first trio of arrests contained charges of federal firearms violations.
