Bloomberg-backed piece falsely claims Question 1 will stop “convicted felons from buying a gun.”

In a recent mail piece, Nevadans for Background Checks continues to peddle false claims in an attempt to pass a law that would criminalize virtually all private firearms transfers. The mail piece claims that Question 1, the Bloomberg gun control initiative, would stop “convicted felons from buying a gun without a background check.” Criminals, by definition, don’t follow the law. In this case, they will ignore the law and continue their criminal activities unaffected.

And on the TV ads with someone who appears to be in law enforcement talking about the "background check loophole" and stopping bad guys from buying guns off the internet and at gun shows. Sadly, they've been able to use their $3+ million war chest to lie their way into the fearful minds of those that don't care to learn any facts. The pro 2nd folks are trying to counter this but last time I looked, there was maybe $30-40,000 they had to fight this. VOTE NO ON QUESTION 1!
