Range Targets (UPDATED)
As the Ranges have been running out of targets and ammunition is becoming as scarce as a fully manned watch in Area 1, we are looking to help everyone out as best we can. Since current law forbids us from mailing out ammunition, we decided maybe we could give everyone some paper targets to shoot at. Just download these and print them out for the range:
And for fund raising purposes, perhaps someone could print and sell these in full color with the proceeds going to a worthwhile cause:We know we're going to get a bunch of humorless people claiming this is advocating some demented soul to take a shot at Shortshanks. Listen up - it's a paper training target of an unpopular individual, nothing more. It may inspire people to shoot better and as far as we're concerned, it's no different from burning someone in effigy or even from this target:That fact is we wish the mayor nothing but long life and happiness in all his endeavors, preferably from the confines of a Federal Correctional Institution, maybe that one in Oakdale, Louisiana.
UPDATED: As predicted, a whole bunch of clueless morons came out of the woodwork and accused us of promoting the shooting of the mayor, even though posted that was exactly what they'd do. We posted the tamer ones in the comment sections, but the deliberate misinterpretations, twisting and outright lies about what we posted went to the big internet toilet in the sky.

It would have been nice if you provided targets with nice groupings to turn in-
Free Bill Cozzi!
True SCC was at range last week they are running out of targets and ammo is scarce! nothing like wanting to practice with no ammo! Great job boss at the top, what next take cta to jobs? hey that would be a great idea, we could get exercise and by the time we get there pookie would be all dead or gone,and the victim would alreday be at hospital providing the medics were not riding cta with us! What a grand idea would save the city millions and old pookie another link card holder and ir number gone!
OT (Off-Target), but SCC-friendly:
"Anyhow, here I am with the gun-hating, but wicked hot Alyona. Wait for the end when I ask her to go shooting with me, I think she digs me."

is the line ready?
G wouldn't have the balls to send him there.
you're spot on in thinking that one of the 4 images you've provided will inspire vastly improved marksmanship.
now, if only that background image wasn't so pixelated.....
SCC:
Over the past years your blog has been informative, entertaining and humorous. However, your recent post of the Daley target is just plain mean-spirited and hateful. Daley could be a bad Chicago mayor, along with all the other bad Chicago mayors going back to Big Bill Thompson. The basic fact is that he still is a human being that doesn't deserve an offensive picture that is extremely provocative.
Recently, your writing has taken a different tack. You are sharing a more vindictive style and expressing less acerbic wit that is of your style. I truly hope you can get back to the course of writing that has been so much enjoyed in the past.
This may have crossed the line, SCC. I hate the guy, too, and hope he doesn't live out this term, but this might be pushing the envelope a bit much. Just sayin'.

Go Fuck Yourself!!
Remember what happened to that guy from California who dared to mention to the stuttering prick's staff something about shoving a rifle up his ass.
Personally I'd rather see the public humiliation of an indictment followed by about 250 counts of various public corruption charges for mumbles along with his dimwit son and nephew.
All quite naturally finished with conviction and a lengthy stay in a federal prison somewhere.
Then the next mayor can spend his first year in office having the daley name erased from public view.
The Daley target is WAY over the top. Not funny.
Agree with crossing the line. I never voted for the man - but using his mug is inflammatory, really wrong. Just cuz we hate him doesn't mean everything put out is right.
The range is running out of targets because its going to be closed down and replaced by X-box 360 game systems which will be in each role call room.
Back-off, SCC is not being
vindicative. It's just the
fustration suffered by most
Policer Officers on the street
is starting to show.
Being hamstrung in doing their
duty on both fronts.
By the suits running the department
and the law-breakers who thumb their noses at the Police, and
shoot at them too. So just back off. SCC is the voice of reality in
the Chicago version Fantasy Island
and Let's Make A Deal.
Definitely not politically correct.
well maybe just maybe and im not saying its wrong, but just maybe that certain range officer at area 2, should i dont know let other people shoot some of that ammo instead of shooting it all himself.. Maybe he could stop stroking himself telling everyone just how great of a shot he his and let some actual po's get some practice in...I guess its private range time for him and me. except i need to drive into the burbs and pay for the range time.....
I love the choice of targets
U might want to take that one of Daley down. Just saying. I think you've just crossed the line.
If the muslims can build a mosque near ground zero, I can shoot at a target in the likeness of a thief and criminal.
Obviously you posted this to show him as a target for ridicule...
There are no budget cuts...the dept has money for more chiefs....crystal ball unit as an example. There is money for what they think is important.

pansy.

don't worry, osama is safely tucked away in some mountain cave on the opposite side of the planet.
CPD has no Ammo..? And No more targets...? Good thing I saved my Snap Caps. At least I can dry fire!!!
Ps. Those who dont see the Daley target as a joke will never get it.
I would thoroughly enjoy shooting at targets showing an extremely unflattering photo of my ex-mate, but it does not mean I am going to shoot or harm them in any manner. It would just make for a little more fun! Now, where did I put that photo album? I feel a Kinko's run coming on!
Definitely not politically correct.
And LOVING IT! Comon people, have a sense of humor.
You've got Ali Bull$hit, maybe you ought to provide the 49 alderthieves and other assorted characters. Save 'em and trade with your friends.

That guy is full of him self and I bet he gets all the ammo he wants from the range in addition to our old stuff we have to give back. Its bs!

Shouldnt you be discussing this over your camp fire with non fat lattes and your prius parked in the backround. wah wah wah. i dont get why liberal democrats are on this site amyways, go complain to katie couric. its a satire about the mayor, relax. I bet your one of the losers that called in freaking out when you saw part of janet jacksons breast during the superbowl and whined for an hour about how "offended" you are. you people need a sense of humor, lifes to short crybabies. the word "offended" is seriously getting old and pathetic with your type. it will be interesting to look back on your life when you old, realizing how short life truly is, and how you were "offended" by eveyrthing little thing that you didnt agree with.
SCC, the post was ballsy, ill admit but ya know what its a satire, clearly your not promoting someone shooting the mayor. its all good.
Too funny!! You picked a great picture-thanks for a good laugh!!! : )
Daley is going the way of Mayor Jane Burne. I remember when the Fire Fighters would threw dirts at her target.
Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeesus fucking Christ, some people take life (and themselves) way, way too seriously.
The Daley target was a bawdy joke, jagoffs. Nothing more. Take your menstruating, weeping, hyper-sensitive horseshit back to the San Fransisco bath house where you belong.
"Remember what happened to that guy from California who dared to mention to the stuttering prick's staff something about shoving a rifle up his ass."
Yeah, and the Stuttering Prick himself said the same thing to a member of the media and NOTHING happened to him, even though the threat was much more proximate and it could easily have been argued that he placed the victim in fear of receiving a battery.
So what's your point?
A Daley target is offensive? Yippee. Why is everyone so damn sensitive these days?
A nation of pussies. Oh, geez, now I've offended some else. It just never ends...
"The basic fact is that he still is a human being that doesn't deserve an offensive picture that is extremely provocative"
Agreed. A better likeness or perhaps a photo of him smiling would've been much more appropriate.
Pretty funny SCC, maybe not PC, but still humorous. I can't wait for the J-Fled toilet paper to come out, you know, with Jody's face on each sheet?
We walk around with targets on our backs everyday, drive around in a target and the alderman and reverends pretty much tell everyone were the target. Lets see how Daley likes being a target! And for you extreme liberals...no one is asking anyone to take Daley out!
The range now that's a topic!
I actually thought the target was quite funny, and didnt find it offensive at all. some people just dont have a sense of humor. no one is suggesting anyone shoot at anyone, and if it is so offensive, what about the deck of playing cards with terrorist pictures on them, someone can call that offensive as well but they were huge sellers. pc isnt everything folks. one has to have some kind of humor in their life to make it through the day with all the shitheads on the street making coppers targets each and every day. stay safe and keep up the sense of humor!
