You might say it's the difference between the elitists and the commoners. The country club golfer and the country hunter. In Virginia hunting has been around far longer than golf.

The movement of counties declaring themselves 'Second Amendment sanctuaries' – taking their own spin on 'sanctuary cities,' which vowed not to work with ICE to deport undocumented immigrants – began shortly after the election earlier this month in which Democrats won full control of the General Assembly for the first time in decades.
It's important to note that Virginia is but a microcosm of the country in that populated areas continue to wield power over rural citizenry. In Virginia it's exaggerated. Northern Virginia, i.e Washington DC country, is way behind the rest of the state in terms of land area.

"[They] see it as their jobs to forcibly disarm their fellow citizens, and with all due respect, that won't be happening in Lake County," Blake added, referencing former Democratic presidential candidate Beto O'Rourke's infamous, "Hell yes, we're going to take your AR-15, your AK-47
It's also important to note the impetus for proposed new gun control laws in Virginia was the June, 2019 mass shooting in Virginia Beach which happens to be the largest city by population in the state... not in hillbilly country.
