Until they do a East Blizcon I'll care.
Nobody is going to be arrested at the door of Blizzcon for holding a scalped ticket. The idea is laughable at best. If someone is outside, they'll just be told to leave. It's a misdemeanor, it's not worth the cops time to do more than tell the person to get lost.
The key word in the law you posted is "misdemeanor". Nobody is going to bother going after a website outside of the US for a misdemeanor.

Doesn't mean it wouldn't cause eBay and such to take it down. It's not illegal to sell WoW accounts but they started taking those down and Blizzards request a LONG time ago.
And you think people don't care about misdemeanors? Go drink and drive if you think people don't care about misdemeanors, or strip in public, its a law and if caught you can go to court.
Scalpers outside events HAVE been arrested before, I've seen it first hand.
(not the people who buy the tickets, they haven't done anything wrong really, except stupidly buy overpriced tickets)
Drinking and driving is a felony. Do you know the difference between a misdemeanor, and a felony? I doubt you do, if you think handing a gate agent a scalped ticket, and drunk driving are the same.
But I know your response is fueled from butthurt and refusing to admit you may be wrong, so i won't waste time commenting on the rest.
Uh, in the US up to 3 or 4 depending on state, drinking and driving is a misdemeanor, and no, I'm not wrong, scalping tickets will get you arrested, if you're doing it outside the venue, doubt online, but it still doesn't change the fact that it would behoove eBay such to take illegal tickets down

I never said it was illegal to buy, just to sell, it's only idiotic to buy but won't end in a fine.
