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 |
| We'll take one step at a time, and the first is necessarily - given the political realities - very modest. We'll have to start working again to strengthen the law, and then again to strengthen the next law and again and again. Our ultimate goal, total control of handguns, is going to take time. The first problem is to slow down production and sales. Next is to get registration. The final problem is to make possession of all handguns and ammunition (with a few exceptions) totally illegal. — Pete Shields, founder of Handgun Control, Inc., New Yorker Magazine, June 26, 1976, pg. 53 |
