Well now I know what color my targets are going to be for the rest of my life. As if I'd ever even thought about it before.

If they're willing to pay for a full color printer large enough to print torso targets (and color ink for life), then I'm on board.... otherwise, it's simple economics... black ink is cheap- and since it's intended to be destroyed, using more expensive ink to make it is just stupid.
But i cant see the white targets 😑
At least most of the targets are gender-neutral aren't they?

I don't see this really happening but I'm going to stock up before the panic buying sets in, you know, just in case.

Hell, if the Leftists want to pay for my targets, they can print them in whatever color they want as long as it's visible and meets the tactical training needs. Not real keen on that Salvador Dali-esque one but it could work if they set up target areas for specific organs ...

Truly, the only thing the left is resisting is the biological urge to make one's life useful.

[ROFL3]
Is it racism if I don't shoot at black targets? I mean won't the black targets get jealous of the attention paid to all the other colors in the spectrum?

Cash it is sir. [Beer]
Look at you all, typing your hateful words in black text on a white background.
Is there any way to comment on these without signing?
Should I feel guilty if most of my targets are brown?

Depends on what side of the wall they're on.
For the record, I purposely shot a pregnant white woman during my CCW class.
Sadly, I also mistakenly shot a Denver PD between the eyes.
Hey, at least I was accurate under fire. LOL
Anyone else see some holes in this study? Guess that's ok if it fits the narrative.

As dumb as this is, a range I used to occasionally use when I lived in Wichita banned all "humanoid targets". No silhouettes (like B27, B21 or B60) and no photos of people. Nothing that looked human like. They didn't want local libtards to photograph people engaged in "paramilitary" or "homicidal" training.
Our targets are either a lovely shade of light blue or light green and look like this:

I miss the old days when we used these targets below. Made me feel like I was shooting at some of the bosses. [Flower]

I'm gonna put yellow smiley faces on my silhouette targets from now on.
I'm gonna put googly eyes on my silhouette targets from now on.
FIFY

Where can I find black paper plates and index cards? I feel left out.

I should add, she was hit high COM and the baby lived.
The DPD officer was however, Zombie food.

I don't care what my target looks like. I've seen male/female/black/white/adult/child targets. if the target shows some sort of threat being posed on you, then by all means, it's getting shot....... or if it's steel. Steel is just begging to be shot.
Is that Rod Serling?
No, but I would frequently write "My name is ATSAIC FNU LNU" in a word bubble on the target as I hung it up. Where his right jacket lapel meets the tie = COM and the white space between the eyebrows for headshots. It was a pleasure punching holes in that SOB.

So, will the next cause be to stop making black labs pets? The symbolism of putting a collar on them and controlling them with a leash is just too much to handle. It really doesn't matter to me what color my targets are - they are just a piece of paper with a high contrast image that makes it easier to see and distinguish what you want to aim and shoot at. I've never thought of them as representing any race or gender. Some people need to find better things to do with their time than come up with causes like this.

I tried under another bogus e-mail addy. The comment was gone within minutes. I said
I'm not shooting at a black target. Just the whites, as usual, hiding behind them
Reply from a NYC DET i know. They must be shooting them selves, we use blue.

Our daughter says you forget. It's ok to select dogs based on their color and religious beliefs.
