Nevadans for Background Checks launches another ad aimed at passing Question 1

Nevadans for Background Checks, a political action committee, on Tuesday launched its sixth ad in its campaign to pass Question 1, the ballot initiative proposing to expand firearm background checks to private-party sales and transfers.

The 30-second ad, which will air statewide, features former Clark County Senior Deputy Sheriff Jim Childs discussing online firearm sales..embed-container { position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.25%; height: 0; overflow: hidden; max-width: 100%; } .embed-container iframe, .embed-container object, .embed-container embed { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; }

 

“The law requires criminal background checks in gun stores; why don’t we require them online?” Childs said in the ad. “A few clicks of a mouse and now a bad guy is armed and potentially dangerous.”
