Traded in a pickup truck once. Dealer wholesaled it and nobody bothered to do the paperwork. Three months later it was used to rob a convenience store in podunk Texas. First I heard of it was when the podunk Police showed up to ask my wife if her husband, who was on duty at his own podunk department at the time, was an armed robber on his off days. Answer No. End of problem. One good thing the truck was totaled just after the robbery. I did not weep then for the misuse of my old truck. Houston PD called some years ago and told me all the court cases were finished and did I want my .45 back. After some conversation we determined I had sold that gun in a legal private sale at a gun show a decade prior. Oh my God, the left thinks I'm a loophole. My honest streak kept me from getting the gun. It really wasn't mine at that point. Nor was I in ANY way responsible for the misuse that made that poor gun homeless.
