Vote ‘no’ on Question 1

The Orlando shooter was “investigated” and cleared by the FBI and hired as an armed federal security contractor in spite of a lifetime of violence and threats. He passed a background check to buy his murder weapon. So much for the efficacy of background checks.

Obama will use the passage of universal background checks, Question 1 on Nevada’s general election ballot, as evidence that the public sees domestic terrorism as a “gun violence” problem. This will give him a pass for allowing radical Islamists to infiltrate the U.S. and continuing to force the FBI to get the Muslim Brotherhood’s permission to investigate radical Islamic terror plots.

Vote “no” on Question 1.
