User pay for a completely unnecessary program that would keep body armor out of gang bangers hands in the same way that gun control keeps them disarmed? Sorry, but you failed logic 101. They're criminals..... Who for a one red second honestly thinks that if these guys already get handguns and even full auto prohibs through black-market channels that they'd come to a full stop and reconsider their lifestyle choices because of a new body armor ban?

It's another Emperors New Clothes law; a tactic grab by the police that will also be treated just like our firearm laws: if it gets to court, the prosecution will have already pleaded out all the annoying little charges to get a plea on whatever meatier one looks best on their resume statistic chart. Except in Toronto, where the police will use it as a ruse to search your whole house and then sieze and destroy your property before your first court date.
