British shooting range using Shamima Begum posters as TARGET PRACTICE for punters
A BRITISH shooting range is using Shamima Begum posters as TARGET PRACTICE for punters as young as six years old.
The reviled ISIS bride was last week refused British citizenship after fleeing East London in 2014 to join the brutal caliphate.
The Bethnal Green runaway schoolgirl, now 19, has begged to come back to the UK from the squalid Al-Hawl camp in Syria where she is living with her week-old baby.
Ultimate Airsoft Range in Wallasey, Wirral, said they introduced the sick targets due to supply and demand.
On their now deleted Twitter page, the company posted a video showing dozens of Begum posters being printed off with a target range around her head and the message “hot off the press”.
They also used numerous hashtags including “#Traitors and “#madeyourchoice”.
Other targets at the range include depictions of Donald Trump, Margaret Thatcher and Adolf Hitler.
That’s just wrong. No sympathy for her plight but this is not us as a country

The company has defended the move, telling The Victoria Derbyshire Show that it allows people “to have some light-hearted fun bringing out the inner child in all”.
It is not known how long punters have been able to use the target, but the video was posted more than a week ago on February 19.
Today the business deleted its Twitter page after the business decision provoked outrage online.
Social media user OJ wrote: “That’s just wrong. No sympathy for her plight but this is not us as a country.”
While MsAlliance added: “How is this light hearted or fun? And to what sort of inner child would this appeal?
“One who had been raised without any humanity or decency. This is sick. The people defending it are base.”
British actress Shobna Gulati also condemned the target, writing simply: “That’s disgusting.”
Ultimate Airsoft Range refused to comment when approached by the Sun Online.
