It has been two years since a gunman opened fire on a crowd of concert-goers at the Route 91 Harvest Festival in Las Vegas, killing 58 people. In part, the incident led to gun legislation during the 2019 legislative session. SB143 was one of the first bills Governor Steve Sisolak signed into law. It will require background checks on all gun sales starting in January, including private party sales. "Background checks do save lives," Will Pregman, Communications Director for Battle Born Progress said. "There are many background checks that get rejected just from the current system when people trying to buy a gun and have committed violent crimes."

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
