No Body Armor for Mundanes

A new law that has been introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives "would prohibit the sale, transfer or possession of military-level body armor by civilians". In other words, private citizens all over the entire nation would be permanently banned from owning body armor if this bill gets passed and signed into law. The bill that I am talking about is H.R. 5344 (The Responsible Body Armor Possession Act), and you can view the proposed legislation for yourself right here. The driving force behind this new law is Democrat Mike Honda from California. To Honda, it doesn't matter that large numbers of very responsible Americans have purchased body armor to protect themselves and their families in a society that is rapidly decaying. Instead, it makes perfect sense to Honda to ban body armor because "access to military-grade body armor emboldens criminals and mass shooters to act." And Honda wants to make possession of body armor a criminal offense with a penalty of up to 10 years in prison. This is absolutely crazy, and it is yet another example of the "police state mentality" that is so prevalent among our politicians these days.

...

Body Armor is not a weapon. It is a form of Self Defense. And it reinforces the concept that Govt truly believes we should be as vunerable at all times as possible. Its as idiotic as banning condoms to prevent pregnancy and STDs. Its as moronic as Banning Seatbelts or Harnesses in the Indy 500. Its as stupidiotic as Banning Protective Fire Gear for Firefighters.

Nearly every single time a Govt has disarmed its populus, it has ended in Tyranny. And no, the UK / Australian Gun Bans dont apply as UK also banned Police from use of Guns while Australia has seen gun crime just go Up Up Up. The former USA is not the only one that is being / has been taken over by Tyranny. It is damn near world wide.

It's as idiotic as banning ejection seats in fighter jets to save pilots lives. Lucky we don't give an IQ Test to join the U.S. House of Representatives.

That place would be empty!

Press on.

Yeah, that thing worked too. I think there is video some place on youtube.

The point was that this is why we have these kinds of things coming up that Damian mentioned in the OP. Without it you're rather easy pickins when in the company of tyrants. And, of course, we won't see this on news at 11 now will we?

I don't want to hijack Damians thread so will leave it at that.

That is what I want. When the government forces people to become more inventive, they do.
