Close the Car Show Loophole

Our friends at Ammoland offered an insightful piece on the absurdity of cries to close “loopholes.” In this case, a reader offered the suggestion to “Close the Car Show Loophole!” It is almost funny, until you realize that this is no laughing matter:

“Some of these cars end up in criminal hands as get-away cars or are used by murderers, drug dealers or gang-bangers. Some cars are smuggled into Mexico and used by drug lords there. Convicted felons, mentally deranged persons, domestic abusers, and aliens unlawfully in the US can all buy a car at a show. Even those on the terrorist watch list can go to a car show and buy a car.”

Of course if anyone tried to close the “car show loophole,” we’d probably hear all sorts of outcry on the subject.
