Citizens do NOT have a right to buy protection THEY deem they want?

These Libs are NUTS.

This proposal would do nothing to cut down on the killings by mental cases.

It is just more pie-in-the-sky grandstanding.

That’s right. Antifa will be classified as a Government protectorate and allowed to go nilly willy.

So much for bullet prof backpacks, Schumer is doing it ‘for the children”.

If FBI and democrat elites want to hunt deplorables they don’t want to have to use two bullets when one will do...

Did Schumer just buy stock in a body armor company?

That bastard just isn’t happy unless he’s trying to regulate or ban SOMETHING.

It’s the old “but you are not OSHA or union certified, or where is your degree? so then you are not allowed to do it” mentality. “Where’s your piece of paper and permission?” Just like all the inept laws they pass, If it’s illegal no one is able to or will do it right?

You would think Schumer would want body armor handed out like Obama phones. After all, he predictably but, falsely claims the victims of all this shooting by the leftist, terrorists are all minorities.

Funny how so much anti-American legislation seems to originate in NYC.

All these shooters are initially reported to be wearing “body armor” or a “bullet proof vest”, but in the end, they are all wearing tactical vests that offer zero protection. They look pretty tacticool, with lots of pockets, pouches and velcro, but no kevlar or plates.

This law will not prevent a single shooting.

Completely ignoring the fact that in the most notorious case of criminals using body armor since Ned Kelly, the 1997 Hollywood Shoot-Out, the perps wore home-made armor from the tops of their heads down to their ankles.

Fortunately for the Po-Po, they didn't bother to armor their feet.

Funny thing is that Damned near Everybody I tried to Inform this was the Overall Plan back in the late 80’s early 90’s blew Me off saying that I was crazy, wrong, looney or whatever. It was even part of My 1st wife and I’s separation and divorce. I would like to be a fly on the wall now to hear what they are thinking and saying now.

Probably the same thing except that Our side is the Cause...

F-All you fools !!!

The funny thing I noticed about “conspiracy theories” is that almost all have come true so far in the end.
