Listen Later

Welcome to the Safety Solutions Academy Podcast.

I have an outstanding interview for you today with an excellent guest and I’m not going to waste any time before we dive in.

 

Today we are going to talk to Massad Ayoob:

 

  • Internationally know firearms and self-defense instructor who specializes in the laws surrounding the use of lethal force.
  • He has authored more than 20 books and in excess of 1,000 articles on firearms, combat techniques, self-defense, and legal issues, and has served in an editorial capacity for multiple magazines including:

    • Guns Magazine, American Handgunner, Guns & Ammo, Combat Handguns and Gun Week.

    • Since 1995, he has written self-defense and firearms related articles for Backwoods Home Magazine which also makes Mas a prolific blogger.
    • He also has been featured on a segment on the television show Personal Defense TV
    • Ayoob has extensive courtroom experience as a testifying police officer, expert witness, and police prosecutor.
    • Even with all that courtroom experience, he is not an attorney
    • Ayoob is, however, a former Vice Chairman of the Forensic Evidence Committee of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers
    • His published work was cited by the Violence Policy Center in their amicus curiae brief filed with the U.S. Supreme Court in the District of Columbia v. Heller case.
    • Additionally Ayoob filed a declaration in a second amicus brief in this case.
    • News coverage of Massad Ayoob and what he has accomplished has appeared in or on:
      • Los Angeles Times
      • Boston Globe
      • New York Post
      • National Enquirer
      • ABC's "20/20"
      • BBC News Magazine
      • Massad Akoob has taught police techniques and civilian self-defense to both law enforcement officers and private citizens since 1974

        •  

        We have spoken with Massad Ayoob before, but today’s episode is different.  We spend very little time talking about the legalities of the use of deadly force and instead, hold true to what I am trying to accomplish withe the Safety Solutions Academy Podcast by conducting deep dive interviews that take a look at our world in a way that hasn’t been previously considered.

         

         In today’s episode of the Safety Solutions Academy podcast, we talk about topics such as:

        • His very serious introduction to defensive firearms at the age of 12
        • How he developed his focus on the legalities of the use of deadly force
        • How the shooting landscape has changed through the 50’s, 60’s and into today.
        • And of course the upcoming mag 40 hosted by Safety Solutions Academy In June where a whole slew of folks will have the opportunity to spend time with Massad Ayoob.  Stick around to the end of the show and I will let you know how you can attend this course.

          •  

          We hit all of those topics and so much more!  I hope you enjoy today’s show with an industry Icon, Massad Ayoob as much as I enjoyed recording it!
