A The Virginia legislature, not the governor, wrote the law and you grossly exaggerate what weapons' sale and use are to banned, not confiscated. Weapons that have nothing to do with self defense nor hunting are on the list. Examples, shot guns with rotating shell chamber (think old fashioned tommy guns from the 20s with shotgun shells), rifles that use gas to eject spent shells allowing very rapid fire, grenade launchers, undetectable plastic guns and such.
B He is doing no such thing, A white supremacist blogger named Hal Turner started that rumor. This is the same Hal Turner who has done prison time for threatening federal judges, ie he's a nutter.

You Tube is never your best source for anything beyond funny videos. I recommend you spend some time on Randy Rainbow's channel.
For too many it's all or nothing. You believe that if any weapon is banned all banned. You couldn't possibly use those weapons for your self defense nor hunting. Rifles like that would not only be a huge menace to your family and neighbors should you try to use them as you're likely to wipe out the neighbor's entire family though the walls while shooting at a perceived threat and anyone hunting with them is inviting a lot of unseen collateral damage. Give me one legitimate use of a plastic gun that outweighs the danger they pose. Grenade launcher? Right.
The NRA is at fault here. If it had maintained it's original position of training gun owners to store, transport and use their guns responsibly there would be no issue with gun ownership today. Responsible gun ownership is not the problem for the anti gun crowd it's all the people who take no responsibility in how they handle their lethal weapons. Look at the latest Church shooting in Texas, do you here an outcry there because a retired FBI agent who had been trained to use his weapon used it? Nope, that's pretty much the bottom line, if people are unwilling to get training and carry insurance, just as car owners/drivers do, then they should not be allowed to obtain weapons. I don't care if you did own some of the above weapons no more than I care that semi-trailers are on the road with me provided you and that truck driver have received proper training and know that they lose that privilege if abused.
