The answer is not "bullet-proof" clothes, the answer is re-institutionalize the crazies and give law abiding citizens, school teachers and administrators their God-given, constitutional rights to own and bare arms to PROTECT themselves and their children from crazy, evil people who may or may not have/use guns to perpetrate their ungodly murders.
Don't misunderstand I am not saying anyone with a gun at the school in Newton could have prevented what happened... but they could have, and would have been in a better position to TRY and you are better off bringing a GUN to a GUN FIGHT than an empty hand, or anything else for that matter.
One more thing, speaking of God... you want to begin to actually SOLVE the problem? Get rid of the CHRISTless, "Godless" schools, the "godless" teachers, the "godless" school administrators and their "godless" system and allow ALMIGHTY God to once again have His rightful place within the class room and school. Otherwise all we are doing is perpetuating godlessness which results in more godlessness. = Godless children, growing up to become godless teens, and then godless adults who have no value of human life, no fear of consequences of any kind, no concern or understanding of the life here after and ultimately NO FEAR OF GOD(“There is no fear of God before their eyes.”Romans 3:18 NASB). America has become a "Christless, godless society". We have sown to the wind and are now reaping a bitter harvest of the whirlwind of our actions. In case anyone needs a definition = godlessness is anywhere, anything that has removed God from its midst.
I will be more grateful if someone came up with bullet-proof diapers. There is nothing that protects one from the smell of those things.
Ah capitalism, the smell of a buck, even if it’s not a great idea, can stimulate even the most adventurous type. Expensive clothing for a 1 in a million event happenstance. Better to spend the money on arming and training teacher, who is the first person most psychos kill prior to going after the kids.
Why would you send your kids to a place that needs bullet proof clothing?
As far as durable kids wear goes, I am a firm believer in lederhosen. Kids will be far more likely to outgrow them instead of destroying them. Probably won’t stop bullets, but they can wear them every day.
doctors have been complaining for years about backpack weight. now they have something new to complain about. at least wearing the extra weight will give the kids a bit of exercise. glad i grew up in the 50s with jungle gyms and asphaly playgrounds and football, stepball, wallball, and curbball played in the street. oh and leaving the house after breakfast on my bike with a lunch and back by supper.
