DHS Contractor Apologizes For Selling Shooting Targets of Children
“Offensive” cut-outs depicting pregnant women, gun owners in residential settings removed from websitePaul Joseph Watson

A company which received $2 million dollars from the DHS
has apologized and taken offline “no more hesitation” shooting targets
which depicted pregnant women, children, and elderly gun owners in
residential settings as “non-traditional threats,” following an online
uproar.
As we first reported on
Tuesday, Law Enforcement Targets Inc. (LET), a Minneapolis based
company that has received almost $2 million dollars in contracts from
the Department of Homeland Security over the last three years, recently
began selling cardboard cut-out targets designed to desensitize police
to “non-traditional threats,” including pregnant women, mothers in
school playgrounds, and little boys, as well as elderly gun owners in
their homes.
The company’s relationship with the DHS, along with
thousands of law enforcement agencies, led to fears that the targets
could be connected with Homeland Security’s purchase of roughly 2 billion rounds of ammunition over the last year, which many fear is linked to preparations for mass social unrest. As we documented, the LET’s contracts with the DHS were for “training aids” and “paperboard”.
In its apology, posted on the company’s website as well as Facebook, LET acknowledged that the targets were requested by law enforcement agencies.
We apologize for the offensive nature of our “No More Hesitation” products. These products have been taken offline due to the opinions expressed by so many, including members of the law enforcement community.This product line was originally requested and designed by the law enforcement community to train police officers for unusually complex situations where split-second decisions could lead to unnecessary loss of life.Consistent with our company mission as a training supplier (not a training methods company), we will continue to seek input from law enforcement professionals to better serve their training objectives and qualification needs. We sincerely appreciate law enforcement professionals for the risks they take in providing safety and defending freedom.
The company’s excuse that the targets were designed to
help police prevent “unnecessary loss of life” is highly dubious given
that the images were all of armed individuals termed “non-traditional
threats,” designed to ensure “no more hesitation” from police officers
encountering them.
As one respondent to the company explained, “Look, each
of the supposed “threats” appeared to be in their own home settings.
They were also all holding a weapon….it is obvious these paper targets
were never intended to be decoy (don’t shoot targets). It is apparent
this was designed to assist in desensitizing the trainee.”
In addition, the company had previously struck a different tone when it told Reason’s Mike Riggs that
the targets were designed to combat, “hesitation on the part of cops
when deadly force is required on subjects with atypical age, frailty or
condition.”
Although the targets have been taken off the company’s
website, it’s unclear whether or not they have been removed from sale
entirely.
Mike Lilly, a retired 32-year police officer, demanded that the targets be discontinued completely.
“Whomever convinced you this was a good idea needs
psychological counseling. Proper training and readiness is NOT dependent
on shooting pictures of pregnant women and children. Anyone who says
otherwise is seriously mistaken or has another agenda It is noted that
you say they were taken OFFLINE. Have they been DISCONTINUED AND
RECALLED?” he stated.
Lilly’s concern was echoed by retired City of Houston police officer T.F. Stern,
who asked why police officers were being trained “to feel nothing’s
wrong in shooting a pregnant lady or an old man with a shotgun inside
his own home.”
