I believe that law abiding citizens should be able to buy body armour if they want. If there is a problem with gang bangers/criminals using body armour while murdering police officers, then a background/criminal check would be ok with me. But not allowing ANYONE to buy body armour unless the government decides it's ok, is unacceptable to me.
