Solutions To Violence | Ryan Busse | Former Firearms Executive | 9-5-22

Ryan Busse is a former firearms executive who pulls back the curtain on America's multibillion-dollar gun industry, exposing how it fostered extremism and racism, radicalizing the gun industry and bringing cultural division to a boiling point. As an avid hunter, outdoorsman, and conservationist–all things that the firearms industry was built on, Ryan Bussy chased a childhood dream and built a successful career selling millions of firearms for one of America’s most popular gun companies. But blinded by the promise of massive profits, the gun industry abandoned its self-imposed decency in favor of hardline conservatism and McCarthyesque internal policing, sowing irreparable division in our politics and society. That drove Busse to do something few other gun executives have done; he's ending his 30-year career in the industry to show us how and why we got here. Published in 2013, Ryan Busse’s book, Gunfight, The Battle Over the Right to Bear Arms in America is an insider’s call-out, of a wild, secretive, and critically important industry.
