Summary

Topic: Why I’m Leaving the NRA – Maj Toure

Today Riley and Matthew interview the founder of Black Guns Matter, Maj Toure. He’s the man that’s on a mission to educate people about guns, violence and gun safety. His messaging and training is focused on the urban population hubs where crime is often its highest, communities that often have a dearth of gun range and training opportunities. Much of his fundraising is to support his ability to offer these courses at no cost to their participants. Maj also details why he will not be renewing his NRA membership this year after many years of supporting the organization. Leave us your thoughts about this engaging interview!

0:00.0	This is the Concealed Carry podcast, episode number 288.
0:15.2	Welcome to the Concealed Carry podcast, part of the ConcealedCary.com network.
0:19.5	I am your host, Riley Bowman, joined today by
0:23.6	Matthew Marister, and boy, we've got an exciting episode today. Yeah, man, I've been really looking
0:29.7	forward to this all week. I say exciting, and I think also somewhat controversial, at least I think
0:34.1	for some of our listeners, because just because I think I know our audience, Matthew,
0:38.6	I think overall I think our audience is going to appreciate the interview that we're going to have here in just a few minutes.
0:44.8	In fact, I know that.
0:45.9	But I do think that just because once again, knowing kind of what what our community is like,
0:51.9	I think there's going to be some that are going to hear some things today and they're going to be like, ah, I don't know if I, you know, really agree with that or not.
0:58.9	Or some people might actually be really like, I don't agree with that at all.
1:02.9	Yeah, and I think that's great.
1:04.4	Yeah, totally.
1:05.1	I think that's totally awesome because whenever you get locked up in a concept and it's dogmatic and you don't question anything or,
1:13.3	you know, then then you're not growing. And so, yeah, it's totally normal to question somebody.
1:18.8	But the difference is you question what they say or whatever is controversial, right? And you go look it up and you research it and you find,
1:25.9	hey, maybe I agree. Maybe I don't agree. But, you know, as long as you go look it up and you research it and you find, hey, maybe I agree, maybe I don't
1:27.7	agree. But, you know, as long as you keep from like the personal attacks, and because we get that,
1:34.8	you know, as gun owners, we get personal attack instead of attacking the root cause. And so as long
1:39.9	as, you know, we learn and we present different topics, it's a win.
1:44.7	And I think everybody's really going to enjoy it.
1:47.2	Yeah, man.
