Man Arrested for Attempted Robbery at Vegas Library that Wanted to Ban Guns

Review Journal article

This occurred at the Rainbow Library, the center of the lawsuit against the Las Vegas Clark County Library District for illegally banning open carry.

​The robber attacked a man in broad daylight outside the library. The suspect grabbed the victim's arm and tried to pull the victim from the vehicle. The victim then deployed pepper spray and the suspect ran away with the victim's keys. The suspect then, 20 minutes later, attacked a woman before he was apprehended by police.

Under the legislation proposed by a library trustee and assemblywoman, if the library got its way, it would be illegal to even have a gun in the parking lot.

​There are no "gun free" zones, just places where law abiding citizens looking out for their own self-defense can be arrested by police for exercising their Second Amendment rights.
