New York's Anti Body Armor Bill

[BET7]

FYI - For our New York State residence that frequent this forum:
I received this notice as an email from AR500 Armor, since I'm on their mailing list, and receive emails from them from time to time. Just a heads up on what might be coming your way (I'm thinking other States might then get onboard eventually as well, once they see if this is successfully implemented).

New York's Anti Body Armor Bill

In August, 2019, Senator Charles Schumer said he would introduce legislation to regulate ownership of body armor. With NY Assembly Bill 352, it seems more tyrannical legislators from the Empire State want to infringe on citizens’ rights.

You can't own a firearm in NY now you can't even attempt to stop a bullet from killing you....

When I was living in Massachusetts body armor is legal but they had a law that if you were commiting a crime while wearing body armor you would be charged for a separate felony related to wearing body armor in the process of commiting a crime.

I believe Minnesota has a similar law.

So many of us legal and lawful owners that they want to take away our rights. You know that the purpotrators will love this and go yea! Easier for us! Make us(lawful people) more defenseless how genius of them!

Charging the criminals is fine but the politicians should let the people be able to protect themselves. I'm sure there's people in jobs with a high risk of violent encounters that possibly wear vests everyday like some taxi drivers or similar type job where they rely on a vest to make it home safe.

Politicians seem to think they know what's best for everyone...

Local (Maryland) EMT's are required to wear full ballistic vests on the job. Also come in handy when meth addicts start kicking around and land a foot to the chest - knocks ya down, but still beats broken ribs.

 

[Lock n' Load]

I'd not be surprised if Chucky Cheesehead (Schumer) wears ballistic protection of some sort. I'm sure the final draft will include an exemption that covers him.

And his staff.

Just like how it's OK to trash, loot, burn, and destroy cities all around the nation, all summer long, but as soon as ONE building gets some broken windows in DC (and our "leaders" are in "danger"), hoo-boy, the police chief needs to GO and the processes need to get FIXED and the results were UNACCEPTABLE and things need to CHANGE.

Rules for thee, but not for me.

NIMBY.
