Bulletproofing backpacks is now available for students in a Florida private school.
Should more parents follow the lead, and offer their children this bulletproof shield, just in case?
Thank you

February 18, 2018 6:22 pm at 6:22 pm #1471507DovidBTParticipantAnd if the student was not wearing the backpack when the person started shooting?
Or what if the shooter aims for a part of the body not covered by the backpack?
I think the theory is that the students would crouch down and use the backpacks as shields.
The real purpose, of course, is for the businesses that market the backpacks to profit from parents who buy them as a useless gesture, so that they can pretend they’re protecting their children.

Children are now afraid to wear light-up sneakers to school!
I would want a backpack, just in case. You never know… (unfortunately and G-d forbid).
This is real trauma.
School shootings are a real threat.
