There has been a lot of consternation on the net & blogs regarding the “Responsible Body Armor Possession Act” HR5344, introduced by Rep Mike Honda (D – California) on 31 July. The bill would prohibit civilians from buying or owning armor (including vests, shields and other items) rated Type III or higher on the NIJ’s penetration resistance scale. (Their exact wording, not mine.)
This is a typical BS style of bill introduced by those who wish to 1) insure that their special class is exempt from a law, 2) infringe on the liberty of free Americans, and 3) package it with a title that sounds “nice”. This is the standard MO of those who love the state more than the individual.
This has virtually zero chance of passing. Zero.
