    I have not seen these targets, but you would have to be congenitally deranged or irretrievably stupid to buy or sell them.

    Pretty tasteless.

    I look at it from the perspective of "how i would justify this to a jury if i had to?" i.e.; I am involved in a self defense shooting and, either at the criminal or inevitable civil trial, it is revealed. An ADA/plaintif attorney would have a field day with it. A target like that, just too inflammatory for me. I feel a jury would look at it as just plain mean-spirited or racist.

    I think it is a mistake. There is no need to do something in such poor taste and I agree it gives gun owners a bad rap.

    I think someone's trolling
    Also, the targets are tasteless.
