Like they do on every issue democrats twist words to conceal their true objectives.
They coin catchy terms and slogans that describe the exact opposite of what they really mean.
Remember their "Affordable Care Act" to describe a medical plan that is more costly and unaffordable?
Well "Gunshow Loophole" is just another catchy term they thought up to make their demands sound sort of reasonable.
Their real objective is to shut down all private party transfers.
They want to make it illegal for us to sell a gun to a friend, give it as a gift, or pass it on at death without background checks and government approval.
These kinds of laws and rules always lead to abuse and less freedom.
As an example: If you are just a regular citizen just try to get a pistol permit in NY State or a permit for any kind of weapon in NY City.
I agree completely
