If it was done without permission, who let them in. who set up the range , rented the guns, ammo etc, bit confused here I am.
I'm disgusted with what was allowed to happen at this facility! I've been sitting here shaking my head for the last ten minutes. What kind of ship are you guys running?
pathetic..

Dear Customers and friends of Target Sports Canada,
You should be aware this video was filmed without Target Sports' permission and without the knowledge that the footage would be used in a video that in our opinion glorifies gangs and gang violence.
While Target Sports respects the rights of everyone to free expression and choice of lifestyle, those freedoms cannot be at the expense of others.
Target Sports deeply regrets any offence this video may give and emphatically states that we do not support gangs or a gang lifestyle.
Further, viewers should be aware that this video potentially infringes copyright and may constitute defamatory statements. The posting of this video has cost Target Sports and its owners both monetarily and personally for loss of reputation.
The makers of this video agreed in late 2011 they would remove the video from public view and would not post it again, and they have now breached this promise. As such, Target Sports is evaluating taking legal steps to remove the video and recover losses from the publishers, makers and stars of the video.
If you are going to go watch the video we would strongly rquest that you "dislike" the video and both write a negative comment and "flag" the video as inappropriate.
Sincerely,
JR
Owner
Target Sports Canada
To put this matter in perspective:
This video first surfaced in March of 2011. It was filmed on a camera that looked (after review of security cameras) like a simple SLR in late 2010.
A licensed "member" brought in guests and was supposedly showing firearms in the classroom attached to our “B” range.
Since this surfaced, the member has been expelled and all of the staff and management involved that day were harshly dealt with.
We spent about $20,000 in 2011 in legal costs to get it pulled and to get the originator to "promise" to not every show it again.
Unfortunately he simply edited the video and re-released it 9 months later.
We are once again pursuing our legal options and are going to get not only the video dealt with but the originators as well.
We work very hard every day to present a professional clean and family oriented environment to the hundreds of new shooters we get though here every week. This whole mess makes me sick to my stomach.

It was done in your store, on your range and with your merchandise. Hard to hide behind the "It was done without our knowledge" statement. Sorry. Don't believe you.
