PA lawmaker seeks to ban human silhouette targets


PA lawmaker, Rep. Thaddeus Kirkland plans to introduce a law to ban human targets at ranges across the state. Only police and the military would be exempt from the ban.

"Rather than perpetuate violence by continuing to allow individuals to practice their target shooting by shooting at human silhouette targets at shooting ranges, my legislation will prohibit the use of targets that depict human silhouettes at shooting ranges across the Commonwealth,"

We have precisely the government that we deserve.

I never liked shooting at human silhouettes. I prefer pictures of cuddly kittens playing with yarn balls.

Because in my mind, those cats are nazi spies working for Ikea in the Living Room department... And that my friend is pure evil. Evil Kitty
