Exactly. Every "reasonable compromise" with the anti-gun lobby becomes a "loophole" as soon as the bill is passed.

Finally. People are beginning to see this for what it is.

The biggest loophole around, in the Antigunners minds, is the Second Amendment.

It will be interesting to see if the media takes note of the remarkable fact that less than one criminal in a hundred obtained their guns at gun shows.

But if closing the loophole saves just one life it's the right thing to do. However, for an anti-gunner to champion that line they have to bring attention to the fact that gun shows are not a Guns-R-Us for criminals -- not to mention that the "if it save even one life" line lost it's effectiveness way back when Clinton was still getting hummers in the White House.
