Gyvel,
My point was that body armor is a bigger force multiplier than "assault weapons" or, especially, armor piercing ammunition. Bullets cannot negate bullets, but armor sure can, allowing a bad guy with a gun or otherwise to continue striking with impunity (see Hollywood). I go on to say, that body armor cannot practically be purged from the populace (or criminals), so a ban is impossible. Therefore, armor piercing ammo should be legalized in order to somewhat negate the disruption to the balance of (firearms) power offered by body armor.
A hi cap mag only matters if the shooter lives long enough to burn through it. In body armor, he stands a greater chance of doing so, for good, or ill.
