LAS VEGAS (KSNV) — The Las Vegas-Clark County Library District is reviewing its rental room policy.
This is after a local conceal carry instructor came under fire for using race-related jokes while teaching a private class there on Sunday, April 10.
Nephi Khaliki the owner of Vegas Conceal Carry Weapons (CCW) presented slides titled “Firearm Safety for White People” and “Firearm Safety for Black People.”
“Always make sure there are no minorities in your backdrop” and “Always lick the chicken grease off your fingers before shooting,” Khaliki read from the slides.
Upset viewers contacted News 3 about the videos so tracked Khaliki and asked him about his lesson.
Khaliki who is Arabic and considers himself to also be a comedian said there was nothing racist about the event.
“It has nothing to do with gun safety. Except taking a very mundane subject that gets easily forgotten and shocking their system and making them remember the safety rule. Always keep the weapon pointed in a safe direction. That’s the joke,” he said.
Several Republican political candidates were in attendance, including Mayor of North Las Vegas John Lee.
Also in attendance — a candidate for sheriff, Tom Roberts — who condemned the graphics used during the class.
Marcus, a black man who also attended the course, asked us not to show his face.
“If that joke was directed to me as an individual, meaning how we’re having this interview right now maybe I’d take offense to it. He didn’t just point out one particular group or minority and just focus,” explained Marcus.
