Help: need source for law on shooting photo of president

Don't know

Don't know about a picture, but if you ever travel through Arkansas on I-30 when you enter Hope, AR, there is a sign there welcoming you to Hope the former residence of Bill Klinton. It gets changed out almost monthly due to a large number of bullet holes in it.

Just to be fair, I'll bet a large number of stop signs need to be changed out.

Some ranges in SE WI have regs against shooting at human silhouette targets. I do not think WI has one though. At least no one has told so.

LOL. Fayetteville used to have signs up at the city limits that said "First home of Bill and Hillary Clinton." I think they've quit replacing them because of spray paint, bullet holes, etc. They seemed to attract far more than their fair share compared to other traffic signs in the area.

A few printable targets over at glockfaq

http://www.glockfaq.com/targets.htm has some targets you can print out, including Saddam and Osama and even some aliens and squirrels.


I think the gun range I shoot at would let me know, since they would be more up to date on such things.

Now, if the picture is of someone breaking into my house, do I get to shoot? Or do I just get to shoot virtually?

I'm astounded that Mass would pass a law making it illegal for anyone but cops to shoot at human silhouettes. Not even California has any laws like that. If you draw a tail on a silhouette in Mass, can you call it a silhouette of a bear standing up?

When it comes to anyone saying that something is illegal regarding guns that isn't blatantly obvious, I never believe them, and instead go look up the law or court case myself. There are a huge number of myths out there as to what is illegal.

As for politicians' faces, that is clearly protected under the 1A, though there may be laws on the books about it, and of course LE sometimes hassles shooters over anything, even if legal.

IT IS NOT ILLEGAL TO SHOOT AT HUMAN LOOKING TARGETS IN MA!!!!

This gets repeated so often everyone believes it. IT IS NOT TRUE!!

The law, which is still admittedly a stupid one, only pertains to a very small group. The law states that a shooting range that has its own FFL cannot allow the shooting of targets with a human form. Ths number of ranges in MA that have their own FFL is exceedingly small. Anyone else can shoot a human picture or whatever wither on their own land or at a range.
