Bullet proof uniforms for American school children

A clothing firm which makes fashionable bulletproof blazers and coats is zeroing in on a new market - American schoolchildren.

The MC Kids range, by Colombian firm Miguel Caballero, offers bulletproof school backpacks and bulletproof child-size jackets.

The Washington Post reports that the company is also trying to convince schools in the US to buy its brightly-coloured safety jacket which teachers would store in classrooms until 'a ballistics emergency.'

The NRA and those that object to gun control in America often offer up the argument that guns are needed to fight against tyranny that might break out at some unknown point in the future, an argument that when seen through the eyes of any sane person reveals itself to be complete horses**t.  

But it should be pointed out to those that don’t want any gun controls, this story shows tyranny has already started to spread, I mean when kids are being sent to school with bulletproof blazers, coats and backpacks to guard against a potential shooting, what else can it be called.

What’s the next step closing all the schools in the US and have kids stay at home and have their lessons via Skype?

I admit that sentence sounds crazy but do you know what else is crazy, reading about kids being sent to school with bulletproof clothing.    

Of course there is a way to stop the tyranny spreading further, introduce sensible gun controls.
