Let me get this straight: you don’t believe that violent video games/a violent entertainment culture might should be “looked at” ... but you want to restrict paper targets at gun ranges?
I think we all agree that using real depictions of people as targets is tasteless, but hella slippery slope advocating that we should investigate those individuals.

A thing that came out of 9/11 was obvious signs there was something fishy with the "terrorists" - a lack of "connecting the dots"
To my mind and I am sure you disagree, just for sport, a red flag is being waved by carrying a picture of a person into a gun range and is a click or two above "tasteless"
But hey, that's just me

The best way to stop a bad guy with a gun is to make sure he doesn’t get a gun.
By that logic, a person who uses the human body cutout while at a shooting range is homicidal.

It seems like some folks are trying to have it both ways here. On one hand, there are complaints that law enforcement has failed to intervene earlier with various folks who've subsequently proved to be murderers. On the other hand, such intervention is considered to be an unlawful infringement of civil liberties. I'm not advocating for a particular position, just pointing out the tension, as I did earlier in the thread.
Seems to me that if you think the onus is on societal forces to head off these incidents before they happen, you'd be open to a potentially burdensome amount of scrutiny towards people who are publically, vocally advocating shooting people.
when you vacation you often remember the rainy days more so than a relaxing day in the sun.
It was a very apt comparison.
Like terrorist attacks, law enforcement seldom beats their chest over stopping a crime before it happens
