  I love when someone brings up Rittenhouse because I dated someone who went to high school with him, so I know quite a bit about him.

  Turns out all of the signs were there and his mom encouraged that type of stuff :)

    They’re often are signs. I was at school with someone that ended up being a murderer. He was a super weird kid, his father wasn’t around and his mother was an alcoholic so he never really had a great upbringing, schools response to all this was to get him suspended whenever he acted up.

  Where can a civilian get a good bulletproof vest?

    In the US I’m pretty sure you can just buy them online.

      Do John wick style bullet proof suits actually exist (and work)?

        Short answer : No

        Long answer : Bullet proof is a misnomer, everything, even the air, will eventually stop a bullet. You can get a suit with ballistic fiber which will work against small and slow calibers. Keep in mind that the damage a bullet does is more than just perforating your clothing. Body armor has a rating system telling you what kind of rounds it can mitigate, although most rifle rounds require some sort of rigid plate to prevent penetration and also dissipate the impact over a large surface area. A thin, flexible bullet resistant suit or jacket is not going to do either of those things very well.

        You mean the ones that completely negate impact damage? I think those would violate physics.

        You are supposed to be able to catch flexible bulletproof armor that isn’t made of Kevlar but some kind of non-Newtonian gel, but I don’t know how good it is.

  I’m sick of worrying about being killed over my freedom of speech in this so called free country and I think I’d rather die by calling out some fascist than cancer or living under tyranny anyways.

  None of you are immortal so figure it the fuck out.
