Back in the day we saw these targets change from black on white to blue on white because some moron said it made LEO more apt to shoot a black person.

It’s OK to use white folks pictures for target practice, but not black folks pictures it seems. Isn’t that racism????

All photos matter

Total speculation. But even if true, a review of the website for the North Miami Police Department shows that a significant number of officers are non-white. Use their own photos for target practice rather than using someone’s image without their consent.

You mean “couldn’t” care less. If you “could care less”, it means you could actually care a little more. If you couldn’t care less, you absolutely can’t care any less about the subject matter. Sorry for being a nudge about this.

The study was not speculation, just my opinion.

Dear gr8eman,

Mind you now, that our beloved government agents have pictures of every group of american citizens, as made to target, with the one pictured holding some kind of firearm!

Be they: grandmas, grandpas, men of all colors, women - some with their children, and some children, too ... all in civilian dress and manner, all holding a firearm at those using that target for range time!

It would be a ‘sin’, were I to deny that “some famous thug” was ever used in my revolver range time!
