I know what to do to stop AIDS. Let's ban condoms.
How about protective eye wear, can we have that? lol
Good guy with the gun 😂😂
USA travel tips :
1. Body Armor
2. …..
How do you protect yourself from a militarized governing body? Inflation is an all-time high, government workers still get their paycheck, many poor people lose their jobs are losing their homes or losing their 401ks and losing their pensions. But these officers they get to keep their pensions and all these great guns and all this great year and all this great money that they get to spend every year on toys like weapons bullets cars handcuffs and all that fun stuff. The number one gun death reason in America is suicide. Do you think gun is going to stop somebody from committing suicide? No they probably will just kill themselves because I want to kill himself. Also all the gun violence is located in all the top major cities in the country. You don't see this kind of gun violence in small areas where everybody knows everybody. Let's also not forget that 10,000 plus dogs a year that get killed by police. Maybe we should start putting body armor on our dogs
Maaan if yall dont get outta here with that bullshit..
If you make bulletproof vests, body armor and other protection against guns illegal, only criminals will have it and be able to protect themselves.
Ban automatic weapons. Tighter restrictions on other guns.
Alot of body armor online is a scam. Just saying. And if a state has a law against the making, transportation, transfer, or position on anything no company can legally send that item or items to that state because they are then transportating a prohibited item.
How about MENTAL HEALTH TREATMENT? How about RIGHT TO HEALTHCARE?
In a minute, you'll need ID to buy toothpaste 🤦🤷
The body armor should be regulated by the Federal Government issued only ! There is no reason for a citizen to have to have this , now if you are employed with Law Enforcement in any field yes you can. And all illegal guns have to be removed from our streets and the plastic three d guns outlawed ! I believe in my rights to own guns but if you are a felon or mental issues then they have no rights . There has been way too many drive bus and homes shot and innocent people and children who have lost their lives from these people who have no rights to carry or own a gun why to much crime from the ones who don’t have the right ! Please rewrite the laws allow only the ones who have clean hands .
Imagine living in USA and not being able to wear body armor.
Going to need to start dressing school children in it if things continue 🤔
Body armor is a must for personal defense.
Thats why it should never be regulated
The issue is not body armor. I shouldn't be able to 3D print a gun at home without regulation, I shouldn't be able to go to a gun show and buy a gun without a background check. I shouldn't be able to be 18 and buy a long rifle, and so on. Close all of the loop holes and make it harder for the bad buys to legally buy weapons. This is like the government coming after drunk drivers by saying the radio manufactures for cars should be regulated when the obvious problem is access to alcohol.
Who really support Joe Biden administration? This is the question that I would like to have the answer. I supposed that are: criminals people or live making illegal things, people without study or socialist people or to like marxims ideology or maybe communist or maybe people that live in other planet like venus or marte or other, I´m kidding. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are the worsts president and vice president that appeared in the US.
Everything is “military style” now huh ?😂😂😂😂😂
It’s not to protect the bad guys? Sir
Sulter was working on a hydrogen powered car his videos are all over YouTube.
Now you criticize something made to literally protect. It's not guns or body armor, it's people and the people around them missing or ignoring warning signs.
if you have body armor on the cops wont shot at you.
what if the guy that was trying to save the day & he had body armor on i don't think making body armor hard getting is good thing some places & some workers should have body armor on
why can't you buy body armor
If Republicans have their way, I'll definitely be wanting to keep my right to purchase a bulletproof vest. I shouldn't have to fear being gunned down by a military-grade weapon every time I walk out in public, yet here we are . . .
Thinking about the recent mass shootings and Jan 6, it looks possible that a group of civilians in the US could buy military weapons and gear and launch an attack on the federal government or a state government.
Are people considering and preparing for this?
why is that ar-15 not ditched I don't think thar the United States capital even cares about people v guns
The clueless people in MSM don't get it, do they? This will not have a shot at being banned by U.S. congress any more than military-style guns have had a shot at getting banned.
He literally said that because of the strict gun control the tops was targeted. More control isn’t going to help
here's a solution i don't really wanna mention but now i feel i have to: just aim for the head. always assume this now….
Would this stop people from buying plate carriers? Or just the plates themselves? Cuz sports like airsoft use real plate carriers with foam dummy plates in them which can be swapped out for real ones if one would choose to do so. Would they be included too?
This is incredibly frustrating… you wanna take away guns and now take away a defensive tool that can save lives. How about you all get tough on crime for real this time. News flash: Citizens needs body armor because the police can not guarantee our safety. Criminals are going to continue to use illegal guns and they'll definitely make their body armor too.
They cover purchased armor, but there's also the concern of personally-made/assembled armor.
Great video. you've remind me of what someone once said❤️ "The mind is the man, the poor is in it and the rich is it too". This sentence is the secret of most successful investors. I once attended similar and ever since then i been waxing strong financially, and i most tell you the truth..
