FYI
Democrat lawmakers have introduced to the U.S. House, HR3247, the "Responsible Body Armor Possession Act" to ban the purchase, ownership, or possession of body armor by civilians and to enforce the measure by issuing a fine or imprisonment for up to 10 years or both for violators. The bill establishes a federal statutory framework to "restrict the purchase, ownership, or possession of enhanced body armor by civilians". The term enhanced body armor is defined as "body armor, including a helmet or shield, with a ballistic resistance that meets or exceeds the ballistic performance standard of Type III armor". The current text does not provide a "grandfather clause" and no exception for those who currently own such protective equipment.
