GORDON v. BARR

Holding that Virginia conviction for unlawfully discharging a firearm under Va. Code § 18.2-280(A) is not categorically a removable "firearm offense" under 8 U.S.C. § 1227(a)(2)(C) because the plain language of the Virginia statute encompasses antique firearms explicitly excluded from the federal definition, rendering it unnecessary for the Petitioner to identify an actual past prosecution involving an antique firearm.
