One high profile gun activist, who happens to be a Black American and politician, has drawn the conclusion that Democrat Joe Biden’s executive action against gun owners, in fact, one of the most racist pieces of legislation he has seen, and yet the media is silent and not questioning the motives of the Democrats.
“Just because it is not spelled out in inflammatory words in their gun bills doesn’t make it not racist, because the outcome is to lock up more Black people,” Maj Toure, the founder of Black Guns Matter told me.
Toure is an activist, a pundit, and has run for office with a very respectable showing of support for him. He is definitely a person of interest on the topic of gun ownership and legislation.
According to his WIKI page, Toure is:
A native of North Philadelphia, Toure founded the educational nonprofit organization Black Guns Matter in 2016. The organization advocates for the right to keep and bear arms, and promotes responsible ownership of firearms within African-American and urban communities.
Toure was a candidate for an at-large seat in the Philadelphia City Council in the city’s 2019 election. He ran as a Libertarian. In addition to his support for Second Amendment rights, his stated political priorities included: criminal justice reform; ending the practice of solitary confinement; legalization of cannabis; improved education in Philadelphia; and conflict resolution training for disconnected youths.
“Joe Biden’s control measures are racist, and they are the most racist attacks in some time. It is racist because we know that what the Democrats are doing does not stop crime, and crime is the problem,” Toure told me recently when I called him to ask about what was on his mind as a Black gun activist.
At odds is Biden’s recent Executive Order, which clearly is meant to control gun owners.
“Lawful gun owners are not the problem, so what I see is that as more Black Americans are buying guns Biden is running out there with more gun controls. And this time his goal is to make everyone a felon, overnight,with the passage of the Democrat’s new gun laws.,” Toure said.
Tour comments on politics, but most of his advocacy work has to do with gun ownership and gun legislation.
It’s seems to only be “my body, my choice” when it’s time to kill babies.
I’m applying that same vibe to masks & jabs too. #KeepThatSameEnergy

Toure told me that he is very concerned with the “No Knock Warrents” and how whatever Biden does will just be handed to Democrat Kamala Harris, who he is no fan of.
“When she was in office in Cali she locked Black men up for weed where it is legal, so she contributed to the system of injustice,” he said, adding, and the mainstream media are collaborators because they are not aligned with freedom.”
What Toure is mostly concerned with as a 2nd amendment advocate is with the people. “These gun laws are meant to stop people from protecting themselves,” Toure said.
According to a recent Daily Caller article on gun ownership among Black Americans:
“In the first six months of 2020, gun purchases among African Americans increased by 58.2%, according to a survey conducted by the National Shooting Sports Foundation (NSSF).
“Once people are empowered with the principled idea that they have inalienable rights, the responsibility and value of respect of firearms comes to light,” Leon Spears, owner of D.C. Concealed Carry and a licensed firearms instructor, said. “The process empowers them to become confident with a firearm and traditionally transitions to concealed carry.”
Biden said “No amendment in the Constitution is absolute.”
But let them try to get rid of the 21st and see how quick them “Whisky Rebellion” vibes kick in.
Americans ignored the 18th when it was in place anyway, what makes main man think we gona respect anti gun shit? 🤪🤪🤪

Toure has strong words for Democrats and Biden, and the American people as well who support Democrats, according to a recent Fox News interview:
“Black Guns Matter founder Maj Toure told “Fox News Primetime” host Lawrence Jones Thursday that he’s “not surprised at all” a CNN staffer was caught admitting the network is trying to help the Black Lives Matter movement.
TOURE: It is par for the course. They have one playbook, and the playbook has been exposed. The frustrating part is the fact the American people still allow it, and I can’t even say the American people are tricked by it. We allow it, right? This isn’t surprising. We are seeing Big Tech hide behind the government, Section 230, and basically manipulate. So this is not surprising at all to me; I think most Americans see the fake media that CNN actually is.”
HE HAS A POINT
Consider these posts where Toure calls out the celebrity culture and the way they shape public policy that does not effect them.
I mean I’m always open to hearing them on issues, but if they legit got behind that guy it’s safe to say they don’t pay attention to policy and the outcomes FROM those policies.

What money have you given to help the Black community?
What resources you put towards building the Black community?
You’re not obligated to do ANYTHING, but stop talking that Black shit having no actual deeds to show for.
ESPECIALLY if you told people to get behind Joe.

Watch for more Toure. He definitely sees how this is all plays together.
