They should have used a Little Tiffany target.  8 year old white girl, middle of the ghetto, this time of night, with Quantum Physics books?  She's about to start some shit.

Quoted:

VILLA RICA, Ga. — A shooting target used at a firearms safety class has landed a Georgia police department in hot water.

Now, the mayor is calling for an investigation.

Villa Rica Mayor Gil McDougal on Wednesday, June 21, addressed backlash to photos showing residents using a Black man’s photo for target practice during a citizens’ handgun class, which was hosted by the city’s police department.

“I am personally embarrassed by it, and as soon as it was brought to my attention last night I and other city staff began to address this situation,” McDougal said.

“This incident does not reflect the values of this community.”

He ordered the images to be taken down — but not before residents took screenshots and voiced their outrage online.

One woman said the police department’s post made her feel “100% less safe.”

“I already fear for my Black husband, children, friends, and family on a daily basis,” she wrote in a Facebook post alongside photos from the firearms class. “But to see the ignorance on display from our local police department makes me absolutely sick to my stomach.”

Another resident commented: “If you cringe, even a little, at the thought of shooting at a target of a dog or a child and find absolutely nothing wrong with shooting at an image of a Black man, it’s an indication of how little respect and regard you have for our life.”

In their sick world, it would represent white supremacy, white privilege, a white person that capitalized off slavery 160 years ago, it would be all ok.

This is a can’t win situation. If you use black models for live action targets, it’s racist. But if you don’t include black models, it’s racist. The dip shits at the police department bring this on themselves though. The idea that they would apologize profusely and talk about values when the answer should have been these are commercially available targets using random models and nothing more, is ludicrous.

I saw targets for police use years ago online that were supposed to prepare cops for many different people they might encounter.

One was a white woman in a bikini top with a gun.
Another was a pudgy, white I.T.-looking guy with a laminated badge around his neck, with a gun.

I copied some and printed out small versions.
Shooting at the woman in the bikini top felt a little weird.

Waitaminute... That place is near Atlanta, right?  So somewhat near that police training facility people were protesting, likely the same people protesting shitty cops?

Look you want better cops, do the training better.

About 40 miles west of Atlanta and further than that from the training facility. It has become a very diverse community of late though. Stupid thing to be outraged about though, they wouldn't have said a word if there were only white perps on the targets. I'm ashamed for the PD for caving.

Just another example of the stupidification of the human race.  I seriously doubt these people complaining would have said anything if the target had a white person on it because that's ok somehow in the pudding bowls they call heads.  This PD should be dragged out into the public eye and aggressively disparaged for capitulating to this kind of ridiculous BS.  Every time the innocent back down to the woke mob, the woke mob gets stronger.  Every time the woke mob gets stronger, truth and freedom dies.

They can't be saved.  Best you can do is give them a more merciful death.  Shoot blue shirt in the forehead and the bullet will also get green shirt center mass.

Seems like “equality” actually means put on a pedestal and treated better than everyone else. Though only being 13-14% of the U.S. population Blacks commit the majority of the violent and other major crime in this country by a wide margin. That cannot be disputed


Police and anyone else should be able to use targets that most resemble the threats they’ll be facing. White thug targets aren’t a problem I guess

How many times has this made the news? But police keep using black targets and then issuing insincere apologies to get the commies off their backs. Talk about slow learners

This is a good one. Some Boy Scouts given a tour turned on the cops little shits by taking photos of the black targets and then tattling

Detroit?

Last time I was there I appeared to me that their police department was a majority black cops. The population is definitely a large majority black.

Seems like a realistic target.

This department used mugshots as targets for its snipers:  https://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/family-outraged-after-finding-police-using-mug-shots-target-practice-msna506881

Even more startling for Deant, one of the images was her brother. It was Woody Deant’s mug shot that taken 15 years ago, after he was arrested in connection to a drag race in 2000 that left two people dead. His mug shot was among the pictures of five minorities used as targets by North Miami Beach police, all of them riddled by bullets.

90% of inter-racial violent crime is black on white.
60% of all violent crimes is committed by blacks.

Therefore a violent rection to target practice is just normal reaction.

It feels weird until Methany pops out of the trailer with a gun in her hand during a domestic because she doesn't want Jethro to go to jail again and the free clinic didn't have her meds last week.

Those only make up 90% of the targets, not the entire box.
