Schumer proposes bill to regulate body armor
August 11, 2019
Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) said Sunday he intends to introduce a bill restricting the sale of body armor when the Senate reconvenes in September, according to the New York Post.

The bill would require the FBI to establish standards for who is allowed to buy body armor such as bullet-resistant vests after a series of mass shootings in which the gunmen wore body armor, most recently the suspect in the killing of nine people last weekend in Dayton, Ohio.

Schumer's proposal would include exceptions for police and other public safety officials, according to the AP.

"The ease with which those intent on doing evil are able to get advanced body armor is shocking,"

I'll bet he'll be exempt as well.

True, people sometimes use body armor for "bad" reasons, or in the process of doing "bad" things.

That being said, the ease at which government tends to kill -- or diminish the rights of -- its own people, warrants that people should be able to own body armor. To take a line from chucky.

How about shoes? All mass shooters have worn them.

 

[livingston]

And how many folks wear body armor at the range to protect themselves from N discharges by other shooters ?

 

[E the massive]

Since its been brought up. Any suggestions? I'm looking into plate carriers.

 

[wizrd]

Fucking Schumer shouldn't be walking around without a helmet on - just saying .

 

[BDinPutnam]

I did Nazi this coming.

 

[GOPerfect]

Yeah, cause there are so many evil people wearing this shit these days!

 

[Blimey]

An effective tool a person could use to defend against being shot with zero ability for that tool to be used in an offensive manner.

Let’s ban it.

I might have a set of body armor for sale. I will post soon.

It is against the law to wear body armor while committing a felony! That is not working dammmmm why not? Body Armor going up in sales in 3 2 1 action.

I don't appreciate your making light of Nazis, Ann Frankly won't stand for it!

If they make it illegal for purchase, you can still make your own. AR 500 steel is not illegal. You can cut and fit target steel to any size you want.

You can also wear frying pans to protect your soul too.

 

[thegatman]

Check my post. Just posted a Schumer special in misc.

 

[Toecutter]

Body armor should be protected in the second ammendment. But no one playing by the rules anymore.

Yeah schumeroid because only people intent on doing something illegal feel the need for it, FUCS!!

The more this shit gets proposed the more I get the feeling they are really scared of the people. Only the elite are allowed to defend and protect themselves, now I guess I need to price some......just because. FUCS!!

What does it matter if they wear body armor or not? Chucky and the anti-gunners do not want anyone there to be able to shoot at a mass shooter anyway? They are just using these mass shootings to ram through whatever gun control they can.

Its insane. They are literally taking away our ability to defend ourselves. I really hate these fuckers.

 

[GOYABEAN]

I dont see this happening on the fed level, but i do on the state level.

Well that's a lot easier than working on infrastructure & immigration or anything Pres. Trump is trying to accomplish.

Like national red flag laws and universal background checks?

Every Sunday he makes these proposals that don't go anywhere. This is how he gets free air time. Nothing to worry about, next Sunday he will propose limiting access to beer to people with beer-bellies.
