If they need bulletproof armor just to attend school then it is too dangerous to send them there. This is not a solution to anything.
If you got a boring office job and on the first day you were issued a bulletproof vest because they keep having “incidents”, would you keep working there?
They don’t need it, it’s all just security theater like the TSA. 99.99999% of children in the USA are not harmed by firearms each year. In fact, most “school shootings” counted in the Alarming Statistics are not mass shootings but any incident involving a gun in a certain radius of a school.
Good point. It’s not as if there is ‘No way to prevent this,’ Says only nation where this regularly happens.
Children are being shot and there is a much higher chance of these kids needing this plate than literally anywhere else that isn’t an active warzone. That statistic alone should say enough. This IS a problem and we should not downplay that fact.
The odds of any specific child being killed in a school shooting is very low, but the incidence of shootings is still far higher in the US than any other country, and that’s a big problem.

I wouldn’t mind getting a free armor plate though, those were probably expensive.

Cool story bro

“Orders of magnitude” exists, and is applicable here
