Anti-gun legislators in Virginia recently adjusted their stance on completely outlawing semi-automatic firearms, allowing that you may keep the ones you already legally own, but only if you register them with the state. Gov. Ralph Northam’s proposed ban on commonly-owned semi-automatic firearms will reportedly include a grandfather clause for current owners provided the firearms are reported to a registry, according to local news sources.

There is no "But" in "Shall Not Be Infringed"
You don't attempt to Form, Shape, Mold, or Twist the Republics Constitutional rules. The Bill of Rights expressly prohibits depriving people of fundamental rights. TITLE 18, U.S.C., SECTION 242 explains. |

The "grandfather" concession is baloney, and only a media tactic.
California did the same exact thing, then two years later changed the law and began confiscating registered firearms.

TO REMEMBER |
| After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
