I think these people are vastly overestimating what body armor does for you when you get shot. Almost like they have no idea what they’re talking about.

Plus the Red Chinese will sell you body armor all day on Alibaba.

You are correct. Unfortunately “most liberals and politicians” get their firearms information from watching TV and movies, which are very bad sources of information.

“....I think these people are vastly overestimating what body armor does for you when you get shot. Almost like they have no idea what they’re talking about.....”

This is why bipartisan bills should require hearings, where people that really know facts are allowed to freely testify on proposed legislation so a full picture emerges. Unfortunately hearings are now sound-byte shows for the media where Legislators get their 15 seconds of fame by directing witnesses to say what the Legislators want to hear.

Yep, soft armor is only good for handgun ammo. Any centerfire rifle ammo will zip right through it.
