Re: Navy using targets shaped like Muslim women

At first I thought you were just talking about generic pictures of Muslim women. In this context and with them armed, I can see the benefit of it. If they are doing some training that requires quick threat assessment, I think they need to train for every practical, conceivable threat.
What I don't understand is allowing pictures of it to get out. You have to know that will be inflammatory and will be used in all kind of propaganda to the detriment of our soldiers.

No, WII; the idea is to look for any shape imaginable that is holding a weapon.

Real enemies on the field aren't going to look like this:



Training like this is designed to teach the OPPOSITE of "spray and pray"; it teaches shooters to look for smaller differences and anomalies that spell "threat."

Re: Navy using targets shaped like Muslim women

Well now I used to work at a gun range when I was a kid and tagged a jillion targets that looked like that.

Put me on the target and dress me how you wish. Not my poor wife who is a "hijabi" and wouldnt know what to do with a gun.
