Quoted: New York May Be the First to Ban - and Confiscate - Bulletproof Vests Not Used in the Commission of Crimes Amid the debate on firearms comes something else apparently contentious: the issue of protective gear. As reported by The Washington Free Beacon, New York stands a chance to become the first state in America to outlaw bulletproof vests. A bill sponsored by Democratic Assemblyman Jonathan G. Jacobson would make it illegal for anyone to sell body armor. In addition: Possession would be against the law. Therefore, per the legislation, any resident with a bulletproof vest would be required to give it to the government within 15 days of the law’s passing. The big question is why would they want a law abiding citizen to not have protective gear?  Attached File |

To prove you are not wearing a vest, everyone must go topless.

I guess that's going to really suck if you are an unarmed courier, are worried about a deranged spouse, carry an insert in your school backpack, wear a kevlar motorcycle jacket or want a little extra-protection during hunting season.
Stupid should be painful. Keep voting for commies New York. |

I'm pretty sure in SC it's only illegal if used in conjunction with a crime. I remember a few years back where a fashion designer was making everyday clothing and back packs with Kevlar liners for the wealthy and their kids. Maybe they need to buy a lobbyist?

So no pre ban vests? What if I make my own?
Seems all they need to do is make possession a a vest during the DIRECT comission of a felony unlawful.  Are they gonna ban getaway cars? Face masks? Bags used to haul away stolen proceeds? Electronic comms used in the comission of a crime? Ban lawyers used after the fact in your criminal defense? |

Just a few short years ago, companies were promoting bulletproof backpacks as a safety measure after the MSD shooting. Now NY wants to ban them. Truly clown world. |

Already illegal in NY as noted in the article... To be clear, the Empire State already has a law against wearing a bulletproof vest in the commission of a crime. |

Good. This will make it more inviting for liberals to stay, and provide further incentive to conservatives to leave for free states. Sounds like a win/win.
Besides, there's no ammo, so joke's on them. |

It says vest so easy solution.
Put sleeves on it It says you can’t sell them or possess them Possess means “have as belonging to one; own” So what if I loan you mine but you don’t own it? What if instead of selling it you loan it or give it to somebody and then they loan you theirs or they trade you something? Words have meaning and ways to skate around them but dumb |

Not that it matters anymore, but the period-correct definition of "arms" in the Second Amendment is "weapons of offense or armor of defense."
Why is the government trying to pass laws that make it easier to shoot the civilians? |

No person shall possess, purchase, sell, loan, manufacture, come into physical contact with, or think of possessing, purchasing, selling, loaning, or manufacturing any bulletproof vest. 2. For this section, "bulletproof vest" is defined as anything that covers the chest or back and has any of the following: A) bullet-resistant materials, B) pockets designed to hold bullet-resistant materials, or c) conservative slogans or images. 3. The following people are exempt from this prohibition: A) law enforcement agents, B) government agents, C) oppressed minorities when sticking it to the white man, or D) anyone granted permission by the king or any of His men. |
