Hello everyone. I just ran across a very interesting article on Vice. It describes the program "Black Guns Matter" and talks about it's founder, Maj Toure.

I personal think this is a very great program. Face it: the hood has plenty of guns. Am I saying that's a good or bad thing? No I'm not. I'm saying that there are plenty of young people in those areas that probably aren't getting the required safety training and information about the weapons on the street that they see and possibly handle daily. Let's not sugar coat that. Having a program like this that teaches people not only about proper firearms safety but also 2nd amendment rights from early on in these areas can only be a good thing. This way the guns out there will be treated with greater respect and (hopefully) only in legitimate self defense. That's what this is all about. It seems like a much more effective way to reach people in these areas than Hunter Safety courses or NRA cartoon pamphlets
This man is doing great work. What do you think about this program?
